People with disabilities work in a variety of environments and accommodations in these environments enable them to
enter and remain in the workplace. A literature review was conducted looking at workplace accommodations including provisions
for assistive technology and the following themes in accommodation were identified: 1) types of accommodations recommended,
2) people receiving provisions for accommodation, and 3) methods of reporting accommodation in the literature. Computer
technologies for people with musculoskeletal limitations were the most prevalent provisions reported. Multi subject studies tend
to focus on general themes of workplace accommodations, however the specific barriers and solutions found in case studies is
important to clinicians and developers of new technologies. A need exists to identify themes of specific barriers to job placement
along with the associated facilitators that contribute to successful employment for individuals with disabilities so workplace
accommodations priorities for future projects addressing job outcomes for people with disabilities can be determined.
