Employee Accommodation Requests

Kutztown University is committed to providing reasonable accommodations to qualified employees and applicants with disabilities in accordance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and applicable laws. 

How to Request an Accommodation 

All employee accommodation requests are coordinated through Human Resources. 

To begin the process: 

  • Follow the instructions provided by HR regarding medical documentation and next steps  

Human Resources will guide employees through the interactive process in coordination with the ADA Coordinator and the Reasonable Accommodations Panel. 

Role of the Disability Services Office (DSO) 

The Disability Services Office (DSO) does not manage employee accommodation requests. 

However, DSO may assist with: 

  • Identifying assistive technology options  
  • Coordinating accessible furniture  
  • Exploring environmental or workspace adjustments  

These consultations: 

  • Do not require medical documentation  
  • Focus on using existing university resources  

To request consultation support, please contact dso@kutztown.edu
