Employers can take several steps to ensure they are compliant with EEOC regulations regarding employees with cancer:
Training: Provide training for managers and employees on disability discrimination and reasonable accommodations. Policies: Develop and implement clear policies that prohibit discrimination and outline the process for requesting accommodations. Communication: Foster an open environment where employees feel comfortable disclosing their medical conditions and requesting accommodations. Documentation: Keep detailed records of all accommodation requests and the actions taken in response.
