From support idea to action plan

Workplace Adjustment Plan Template

A workplace adjustment plan should turn a support conversation into clear action. It records what barrier is being addressed, what support has been agreed, who owns each step and when review should happen.

A useful plan shows

Barrier
Action
Owner
Review

Support works better when the next step is visible.

What an adjustment plan is for

A workplace adjustment plan helps convert agreed support into practical steps.

It can be used after a reasonable adjustment request, occupational health recommendation, return-to-work conversation or accessibility discussion.

The plan should make support easier to implement and review. It should not become a burden or a way to over-document someone’s personal information.

What to include

Barrier

What is making work, access or participation harder?

Adjustment

What support or change has been agreed?

Owner

Who is responsible for making it happen?

Timing

When should the adjustment be implemented?

Communication

Who needs to know and how should updates happen?

Review

When should the adjustment be checked?
