Reasonable Accommodations
Reasonable accommodations enable individuals with qualifying conditions to perform the essential functions of their job and have equal employment opportunities.
We provide reasonable accommodations to applicants, employees, interns, and consultants so they can perform the essential functions of their job in connection with:
- Disability
- Religion
- Status as a victim of domestic violence, sex offenses, or stalking
- Pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions, including lactation needs
Requests for reasonable accommodation must be made to DSNY’s Office of Equity, Diversity & Inclusion (OEDI).
The reasonable accommodation process will be flexible, interactive, and individualized, with meaningful, cooperative, and timely communication between OEDI and the individual requesting the accommodation.
A request for accommodation will be considered reasonable if it does not create an undue hardship or a direct threat to the health and/or safety of the individual or others, or change the essential functions of the individual's position.
