The Interactive Process Failure: A Key Legal Violation
Under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and California disability law, employers are legally required to engage in an interactive process with employees who request reasonable accommodations. This is not a one-sided “yes or no” decision. It’s a collaborative dialogue designed to identify practical ways to help an employee perform their job despite a disability.
Many employers misunderstand or ignore this obligation. Common failures include:
- Rejecting a request outright without considering alternatives
- Ignoring medical documentation or doctor recommendations
- Failing to discuss potential accommodations in good faith
- Pretending the request was never made
- Offering accommodations that are inadequate or unrelated to the employee’s actual needs
Even if an accommodation ultimately isn’t feasible, employers cannot avoid their duty to engage in this back-and-forth conversation. A failure to do so is itself a violation of the law, separate from whether the requested adjustment would have been possible.
