How can we better accommodate employees who need dedicated workspace due to disability or other needs?

Asked a year ago

Hi there! Since our company is committed to an inclusive and accessible workplace for all of our employees, one area of concern is how to accommodate employees who require a dedicated workspace due to disability. We already implemented standing desks for employees with chronic back pain. Can someone suggest other ways to accommodate employees with specific needs, while maintaining flexibility and cost-effectiveness?
