The COVID-19 pandemic has made virtual work more accepted and acceptable.

The pivot away from traditional workplace structures has encouraged businesses to adopt new technologies and become more flexible and adaptable.

This virtual landscape brings the potential to improve employment opportunities for people experiencing disability. When the essential functions of a job can be performed remotely, strong work-from-home protocol is valuable for your business—not just in times of pandemic-related restrictions.

Embracing this new reality can grant your business access to an extensive talent pool and valuable new perspectives. Proactively setting remote work-from-home policies will ready your workplace to meet reasonable accommodation requests from employees experiencing disability, or from any employee facing exceptional circumstances at any time.

For all its ups and downs, remote work is going to be with us long after COVID restrictions ease. This is the time to make sure it’s done right, with the proper accommodations, thoughtfulness, and supports.
