Temp Agency Agreements With clients Regarding Accommodations

A Temp Agency may wish to specify in its contracts with its clients that the client will provide reasonable accommodations that are required on the job or specify how the costs of any accommodations will be allocated or shared, as mandated by ADA. Addressing the issue of providing a reasonable accommodation in this manner may eliminate unnecessary delay in providing an accommodation to a worker with a disability and resolve ahead of time any potential dispute between the staffing firm and its client as who will bear the burden of providing an accommodation.
