Read “reasonable accommodation” in three passes. First identify the plain-language idea. Second locate the formal source definition. Third compare the two and mark every restriction added by the source. The third pass prevents familiar words from obscuring technical coverage.
Use the term only with compatible observations. A number from another release, geography, occupation classification, benefit program, or legal test may carry a similar label but answer a different question. Suppression and “not available” remain meaningful outcomes.
Save enough context to revisit the finding: exact label, publication, code or jurisdiction, measured or effective period, primary URL, and date checked. The definition supports navigation and comparison; it is not an individual prediction or legal conclusion.
For a final check, restate the finding with the full definition: A workplace adjustment enabling a qualified person with a disability to apply for or perform a job, absent undue hardship. If that wording no longer supports the intended claim, narrow the claim and return to the primary source. This discipline keeps “reasonable accommodation” tied to evidence instead of intuition.
