Current Events Employer Follow-up Study 1,182 employers interviewed between January, 2004, and December, employers interviewed between June 28, 2008, and July 31, 2010 Total of 1,665 Employers 10 HomeBusinessPoliticsTechnologyLivingWorld

Finding: Employers want to provide accommodations so they can retain valued and qualified employees. Current Events 11 HomeBusinessPoliticsTechnologyLivingWorld

Current Events Results Of the employers who called JAN for accommodation information and solutions, most were doing so to retain or promote (82%) a current employee. On average (including those persons who had just been given a job offer or who were newly hired), the employees had been with the company about seven years, with an average wage of about $14 for those paid by the hour, or an average annual salary of about $48,500. In addition, the individuals tended to be fairly well- educated, with 44% having a college degree or higher. 12 HomeBusinessPoliticsTechnologyLivingWorld

Finding: Most employers report no cost or low cost for accommodating employees with disabilities. Current Events 13 HomeBusinessPoliticsTechnologyLivingWorld

Current Events Results Over half of accommodations (56%) were made at no cost. Of the 37% who experienced a one-time cost to make an accommodation, the typical cost of accommodating an employee was $600. Only 23 (4%) said the accommodation resulted in an ongoing, annual cost to the company and 9 (2%) said the accommodation required a combination of one-time and annual costs. 14 HomeBusinessPoliticsTechnologyLivingWorld

Finding: Employers report accommodations are effective. Current Events 15 HomeBusinessPoliticsTechnologyLivingWorld

Current Events Results Of those responding, 76% reported the accommodations were either very effective or extremely effective. 16 HomeBusinessPoliticsTechnologyLivingWorld

Finding: Employers experience multiple direct and indirect benefits after making accommodations. Current Events 17 HomeBusinessPoliticsTechnologyLivingWorld
