If the supervisor has concerns or questions regarding disability in the workplace, he or she should contact DAS (dasemployee@emory.edu) to consult before talking to the employee about those concerns.
Accommodation requests may not be denied by the supervisor or department before it, and possible alternatives, are thoroughly evaluated in consultation with DAS.
Departments may find it beneficial to contact DAS to discuss the referral of employees who have been out on an extended FMLA leave for a serious health condition.
If you would like to discuss possible training for your staff, please contact dasemployee@emory.edu.
