This Quarter’s Topic: The ADA Interactive Process

When an employee requests an accommodation, what happens next can make or break your compliance posture. The ADA’s interactive process requires employers to engage in a good-faith dialogue — but many organizations stumble over documentation gaps, inconsistent procedures, or simply not knowing where to start. A single misstep can lead to costly claims, strained relationships, and regulatory scrutiny.

This session cuts through the confusion with practical, plain-English guidance you can put to work immediately.

What You’ll Learn

• You will learn the essentials of the ADA interactive process—from recognizing requests to collaborating effectively with employees—and will leave with practical tips to ensure compliance.

Agenda

• 9:00–9:15 AM — Discussion: Navigating and Documenting the ADA Interactive Process
• 9:15–10:00 AM — Live Q&A with our expert panel

Who Should Attend

HR leaders, business owners, executives, operations managers, and anyone responsible for compliance, people operations, or risk management. Whether you’re handling your first accommodation request or refining an established process, this session delivers value.

Why This Matters Now

Accommodation requests are rising across industries, and regulators are paying closer attention to how employers respond. Organizations that lack a documented, consistent interactive process face increased exposure — not just to legal claims, but to the kind of workplace friction that erodes trust and retention.

At LP Insurance, we believe protection starts with preparation. This Coffee Talk gives you the tools to respond with confidence, treat every request with the care it deserves, and keep your organization on solid ground.

FAQs

What is the ADA interactive process?

The ADA interactive process is a collaborative dialogue between an employer and an employee who has requested a reasonable accommodation due to a disability. The goal is to identify an effective accommodation that allows the employee to perform the essential functions of their job without creating an undue hardship for the employer.

Do I need to be in Nevada to attend?

No. The Coffee Talk is held virtually via Zoom, so you can join from anywhere. While some topics reference Nevada-specific regulations, the ADA is a federal law that applies to employers nationwide, making this session valuable regardless of your location.

Is there a cost to attend?

No — LP Insurance’s Quarterly Coffee Talk is completely free. Just register to receive your Zoom link and join us on May 15.
