As American workers age, workers with impairments and functional limitations make up a larger percentage of our workforce. This investigation presents data from the National Health Interview Survey Disability Supplement 1994–1995 (NHIS-D) describing the nature of workplace accommodations in the American workforce and factors associated with the provision of such accommodations. Of a nationally representative sample of workers aged 18 to 69 years with a wide range of impairments, 12% reported receiving workplace accommodations. Males (odds ratio (OR) 0.64: 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.53–0.78) and Southerners (OR 0.57; 95% CI= 0.47–0.70) were less likely than others to receive workplace accommodations. Those with mental health conditions were less likely than others to receive accommodations (OR 0.56; 95% CI= 0.44–0.70). College graduates (OR 1.53; 95% CI= 1.22–1.91), older workers, full time workers (OR 3.99; 95% CI= 2.63–3.87), and the self-employed (OR 1.76; 95% CI= 1.28–2.41) were more likely than others to receive accommodations.
