What is a reasonable adjustment review form?

Reasonable adjustment review form template preview

Reasonable adjustments should not simply be agreed and forgotten. Circumstances can change, an adjustment may not work as expected, or an employee may identify that additional support would help. This review form provides a structured way to revisit existing arrangements and record the outcome of the discussion.

Reviewing whether adjustments are working

The form provides an opportunity to consider each existing adjustment and establish whether it is working effectively in practice. It encourages the employee and employer to discuss what is helping, what is not working and whether anything could be improved.

Identifying changes and further support

An employee's circumstances, duties, working environment or working pattern may change over time. The review captures relevant changes and provides space to consider whether existing adjustments should continue, be amended, or whether further adjustments should be explored.

Recording agreed actions

Where changes are agreed, the form records what will happen, who is responsible for any actions and when they should be completed. This creates a practical record rather than leaving arrangements dependent on informal conversations.

Maintaining an ongoing conversation

A review should be a supportive discussion rather than a tick-box exercise. The form helps managers and HR maintain an ongoing dialogue with the employee and provides a useful record for future reviews.

Example

An employee has been working under a number of reasonable adjustments for several months, including a modified start time, additional flexibility around medical appointments and some changes to the way work is allocated. A review is arranged with the employee and their manager to assess how the arrangements are working.

During the review, the employee explains that the modified start time remains helpful, but the original arrangement around medical appointments is no longer sufficient because appointments have become less predictable. The employee also explains that one aspect of their duties has become more difficult following a change in their role.

The manager and employee discuss possible options and agree to retain the existing start-time adjustment, amend the arrangements for medical appointments and explore an alternative way of allocating one part of the employee's duties. The form records these changes, together with the actions required by the manager and HR.

A further review is agreed for three months later, with the employee also encouraged to raise any concerns sooner if the arrangements stop working effectively or their circumstances change.

Common mistakes

Understand the common mistakes to avoid when using this HR template, helping you reduce risk, prevent unnecessary costs and ensure the process is handled correctly.

  • Treating the review as a form-filling exercise rather than a genuine discussion with the employee.
  • Assuming that an adjustment is still effective without asking the employee about their experience.
  • Failing to consider whether circumstances or job requirements have changed.
  • Recording vague actions without identifying who is responsible for implementing them.
  • Focusing only on existing adjustments and failing to explore whether further support may be appropriate.
  • Including unnecessary medical information rather than focusing on the workplace impact and agreed support.

HR considerations

UK employment law and best practice

This template is designed to support the process, but the document should be used alongside the relevant HR procedure and applied to the circumstances of the individual case.

Equality Act 2010

Where the statutory duty applies, employers must take reasonable steps to avoid a disabled employee being placed at a substantial disadvantage compared with non-disabled people. The duty covers adjustments to working arrangements, physical features and the provision of auxiliary aids in appropriate circumstances. https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2010/15/section/20

Reviewing reasonable adjustments

Reasonable adjustments should be reviewed where appropriate, particularly where circumstances change or an adjustment is not working effectively. Acas recommends keeping a record of agreed adjustments and reviewing them with the worker. https://www.acas.org.uk/reasonable-adjustments/reviewing-and-keeping-a-record

Individual circumstances

Adjustments should be considered on an individual basis. Employers should talk to the employee about the difficulties they are experiencing and possible solutions rather than making assumptions about what they need. https://www.acas.org.uk/reasonable-adjustments

Changes in circumstances

An adjustment that was appropriate when originally agreed may need to be changed if the employee's circumstances, duties or working environment change. Employers should remain open to discussing further adjustments where circumstances develop. https://www.acas.org.uk/reasonable-adjustments/asking-for-reasonable-adjustments

Health information and confidentiality

A review may involve information about an employee's health or disability. Employers should ensure that information is collected, recorded and shared appropriately and only where there is a legitimate need to do so. https://ico.org.uk/for-organisations/uk-gdpr-guidance-and-resources/employment/information-about-workers-health-data-protection-and-the-dpa-2018/

Good practice

There is no requirement to use a particular reasonable adjustment review form. However, maintaining a clear record of discussions, agreed arrangements and follow-up actions can support consistent management and demonstrate that reasonable adjustments are being actively considered and reviewed.

FAQs

When should reasonable adjustments be reviewed?

The timing will depend on the circumstances and the nature of the adjustments. A review may be arranged at a specific date, after a period of implementation, or when there is a significant change in the employee's circumstances, role or working environment.

Does every reasonable adjustment need to be reviewed?

It is good practice to keep adjustments under review, but the approach does not need to be identical for every adjustment. Some may require regular review while others may simply be revisited when circumstances change or concerns arise.

What should be discussed during a reasonable adjustment review?

The discussion should consider whether the adjustments are working, whether the employee is still experiencing any disadvantage, whether circumstances have changed and whether any existing adjustments should be continued, amended or supplemented with further support.

Can an adjustment be removed following a review?

An adjustment may no longer be necessary or appropriate in some circumstances. However, the employer should discuss this with the employee and properly consider the current circumstances before making changes, particularly where the Equality Act 2010 duty continues to apply.

Should medical information be included on the review form?

The form should focus primarily on the workplace impact and the adjustments required. Avoid recording unnecessary medical information, and ensure any personal or health information that is recorded is handled appropriately.
