Job Accommodation Cases Become Difficult to Manage as They Grow
-
Restrictions and accommodations aren’t checked against job requirements
Restrictions, accommodations, and job requirements are tracked in different places. An accommodation can get approved without checking if it conflicts with an existing restriction or the role itself. Managers can’t tell if an employee is eligible for a role without checking multiple systems. -
Requests enter through multiple channels without a shared record
Employees, workforce, managers, and HR submit accommodation requests through different channels without a standardized intake process.
The result: duplicate records, inconsistent documentation, difficult-to-track cases.
-
Accommodation don’t get reviewed after they’re approved
Accommodations may only last for a certain period, depending on an employee’s circumstance.
There are no alerts when one is coming up for renewal or expiration.
Cases stay active long after they should have been updated or closed.
-
Accommodation cases have no shared context with related cases or employee record
Accommodation decisions aren’t linked to an employee’s disability claims or incident cases.
Little to no reporting on accommodation types, timelines, or outcomes.
Building a case for compliance or audits is a long and arduous process.

What our clients say about us
One Case, Four Systems, One Employee
An employee gets hurt lifting equipment on their shift.
Occupational health confirms the restriction and says: no lifting more than 20 lbs for 8 weeks.
However, recovery drags on, so the employee goes on FMLA to finish treatment.
After getting return-to-work clearance, the physical restriction must now become:
An active accommodation, a modified duty, a lifting aid, a temporary reassignment.
By now, the case has passed through: incident, occupational health, and FMLA.
Whoever approves the return must reconstruct weeks of medical detail with no shared history.
In Sodales platform, incident, occupational health, FMLA, and job accommodation all reference the same case.
Nothing is re-entered months later.
Accommodation inherits restrictions from FMLA, incident, OHS cases

What Does Workplace Accommodation Software Connect to?
Restrictions logged during a disability claim feed directly into accommodation eligibility.
Occupational health assessments are often where the restriction driving an accommodation request originates.
A denied or unresolved accommodations often triggers into a formal grievance, especially in unionized environments.
Restricted duty from a workplace incident connects to the same accommodation case history.
Complaints tied to a disability or an unmet accommodation stay linked to the same case without being filed as an unrelated incident.
FAQs
How can HR track and manage accommodation effectiveness?
Each accommodation case has a review date, so HR gets to check if the accommodation still meet’s the employee’s needs instead of letting it run indefinitely.
If the employee’s restrictions or job duties have chanced, the review ensures HR can either adjust or close the case.
Are there tools for tracking compliance in staff accommodation?
Yes. Each accommodation case is linked to relevant compliance requirements at intake.
This gives HR a defensible record and eliminates a need to manually cross-reference regulations.
What tools support collaborative workflows in accommodation cases?
Each case starts with a specific accommodation type like work environment alteration or ergonomic equipment request.
HR can then assign follow-up tasks with a due date, add the responsible person, specific instructions like confirming health restrictions before return-to-work, and clear ownership.
HR, Safety, Medical, Legal, and Labor Relations teams can work on the same case as it evolves.
How do I handle ADA accommodations in my HR system?
Each request is logged under a specific accommodation type, such as alteration to the work environment or ergonomic equipment, which is necessary for documenting what was requested and approved.
Compliance requirements are attached at intake, and if a request is denied or contested, you can rely on the dispute resolution process within the case.
Can we capture restrictions and limitations?
Yes, restrictions and limitations are logged as their own record on the case and get checked against the role’s requirements automatically.
If someone has a lifting limitation of 20 lbs and their role requires them to lift up to 40 bs, the conflict is visible each time the accommodation is reviewed.
You can also create modified duties and return-to-work plans.
Can we restrict access so only authorized users can view protected information?
Yes, role-based access and e-signatures control who sees what on a case.
Accommodation status can be visible to a manager, but the medical documentation will remain restricted to whoever is authorized to see it.
What type of accommodations can the system track?
The system can track medical, religious, ergonomic, and telework accommodations as separate types at intake.
