However, these federal statutes cannot be imposed on State and/or Local Governments per guidance given by Dept. of Justice (https://www.justice.gov/crt/section-508-home-page-0). Given this scenario, it is possible that federal employees may be exposed to technology that does not meet the federal standards for accessibility and can negatively impact employees’ ability to accomplish their assignment(s). This becomes risk that the business organization accepts and it becomes incumbent upon the requesting business organization to mitigate the risk and take positive steps to accommodate the employee.
