Sensory Integration in the Workplace

(U.S.A.)

October is both 'National Sensory Awareness Month' and 'National Disability Awareness Month'. Many jobseekers with disAbilities are reluctant or incapable of working in non-sensory integrated workplaces. Often, Employers desire to hire individuals with disAbilities, but are unsure of how to Accommodate their Sensory Processing Disorder condition. The Office of Disability Employment of the U.S. Department of Labor provides information about workplace Accommodations for people with disabilities. What 5 succinct suggestions can SPD Q & A provide as a workplace Sensory Diet for Employees with disAbilities?

Thanks for the Sensory Processing Disorder vital website and this Q & A interactive feature. 'EnjoyHi5Autism' will share this Question, and an Answer if provided during the month of October. This SPD Question will be featured on October 2, 2011. If an SPD Answer is provided, 'EnjoyHi5Autism' will post it at http://enjoyhi5autism.blogspot.com. We believe "Life on the Autism Spectrum can be Enjoyable.' Thanks
