LET’S BUST THIS MYTH: “Accommodations for people with disabilities are expensive and complex.” Actually, nearly half of accommodations for disabled cost nothing. And one-time costs amount to about $300. A low-cost, high-impact strategy for expanding the available workforce to address labor shortages.
