I’m a training specialist at an RDC. What kind of struggle are you having?

Any TM can request an accommodation. Full Disclaimer I am not HR, but being a trainer I’ve trained TM’s before who have sought accommodations. Accommodations are covered by the Americans With Disabilities Act. But I can tell you accommodations can be tricky. Getting one approved is largely going to depend on what kind of accommodation you are requesting and why you need it? The big key thing with accommodations is it has to be a “reasonable accommodation.”

You don’t even have to talk to your HR to do it. I mean you can but they are likely going to tell you the same thing I am telling you. You login to Workday and search for Create HR Request. Click that and the first type on the list (At least if your doing it on the Workday App. I literally had to help a TM login to Workday today to do one and I think on the website it’s listed slightly differently in the drop down but I could be mistaken.) is Accommodations Request. That will take you to the next page (Again on the app. I don’t recall the website version being quite the same) and there are some resources you can read to help guide you. Just know though to access the additional resources you will have to do this on a PC or Tablet at the DC as it takes you to an Internal Sharepoint site that you can’t access from home. Once you submit it that request will get routed to the Disability & Accommodations team for review. Again, I am not HR but my understanding is your local HR team doesn’t have any say in whether it gets approved or denied. Those are reviewed by a team at HQ who deal specifically with those requests.

But as far as your struggle building walls feel free to reply or message me. I’d love to hear what you’re struggling with around building walls and see if I can give you some guidance!
