The duty to accommodate people with disabilities means accommodation must be provided in a way that most respects the dignity of the person if doing so does not cause undue hardship. "Undue hardship" is defined as an action requiring significant difficulty or expense. An employer is not required to provide an accommodation if it causes undue hardship. This is evaluated based on factors like the nature and cost of the accommodation and the employer's size and resources. Larger employers with more resources are expected to make more significant accommodations than smaller ones. If an accommodation causes undue hardship, the employer should seek alternative solutions or allow the employee to cover the cost or provide the accommodation.
