The hiring official is making a decision regarding whether an applicant will be able to perform the job with or without reasonable accommodation.
An employee requests reasonable accommodation to perform his or her current job, or a job he or she desires.
An employee requests an accommodation to enable him or her to enjoy equal benefits and privileges of employment as employees without disabilities enjoy.
