Anticipating Accommodation
A4_SHINALL (DO NOT DELETE) 1/20/2020 5:59 PM Anticipating Accommodation Jennifer Bennett Shinall* ABSTRACT: In theory, a reasonable accommodation mandate can remedy worker marginalization by requiring employers to make small adjustments in the workplace that have big payoffs for employees. But in reality, a reasonable accommodation mandate may be an empty promise. Reasonable accommodation is the hallmark feature of the Americans with Disabilities Act (“ADA”), yet decades of empirical studies indicate that wage and employment outcomes of disabled individuals have not improved—and may have even worsened—since the Act’s passage. Economists have been quick to blame the reasonable accommodation mandate for the ADA’s failure, but they have lacked sufficient data to discern both what aspect of the mandate is problematic and how to improve it. This Article is the first to supply the missing data, using two experimental vignette studies that test decisionmakers’ willingness to accommodate job candidates and existing employees. The studies find that decisionmakers are more reluctant to accommodate job candidates than existing employees, and cost concerns drive much of this reluctance. Based on these findings, the Article argues that much of the ADA’s ineffectiveness stems from the ambiguity it creates with respect to the reasonable accommodations disabled workers may require. Employers have little information about job candidates, making it difficult to estimate the costs of accommodating a candidate with any accuracy; accommodating an existing employee is inherently less ambiguous because employers have prior experience with that worker. As a result, employers exhibit far more aversion towards accommodating disabled job candidates than disabled existing employees.

The 2017 STEM Reentry Task Force is announced on the brink of WE16, SWE’s annual conference and career fair which is expected to draw 10,000 attendees. For the first time, a “call for returning engineers” is part of the WE16 outreach, featuring a programming track specifically for returning engineers and technical professionals. The 2017 STEM Reentry Task Force members are: Ford Motor Company, GE Power, Johnson & Johnson, Medtronic, Northrop Grumman and Schneider Electric. These six companies have committed to piloting formal reentry internship programs for professionals in engineering and technology who are returning from a career break during the 2017 calendar year. “Having this new group of prestigious, global companies join the STEM Reentry Task Force validates the success of the Task Force’s inaugural efforts and the high caliber of the returning professional pool of talent. With interns converting to long term hires at rates ranging from 50 percent to 100 percent, the numbers speak for themselves,” said Carol Fishman Cohen, CEO of iRelaunch.

Career Break
CAREER BREAK 1. INTRODUCTION The Talent Management Business Strategy describes the Council’s current and future approach to attracting, recruiting, developing and retaining talent. A key aim of the strategy is the retention of talented staff thorough adopting a more flexible approach to the labour market. In conjunction with flexible working initiatives, this policy aims to address work life balance issues that could lead to the loss of talented employees thus providing an incentive mechanism by which staff can return to the service of the Council. The objectives of a Career Break are to; • provide employees with the opportunity to take an extended period of unpaid leave and wherever possible to resume their career with the Council, thus retaining skilled employees • ensure that the Council can continue to provide excellent public services by retaining the knowledge and skills of staff in the longer term and • supporting the Council’s aim to be ‘an employer of choice’ 2. ELIGIBILITY 2.1 Career breaks will be available to permanent employees with a minimum of one year's continuous service with the Council. 2.2 This policy will be applicable to all employees including those schools who buy into the HR Service. 2.3 A career break can be used for a variety of purposes, for example: • time off for childcare, other caring responsibilities or other family responsibilities; (although parental leave may be another option) • overseas travel, for example for the purpose of visiting family and friends • to undertake a full time course of study relevant to their current duties This list is not exhaustive and there may be other reasons an employee may wish to apply for a career break.
