Additional or Modified Supervision, often called structured check-ins or enhanced oversight, is an accommodation designed to support individuals who benefit from regular guidance and feedback in their work or learning environment. This approach provides scheduled, consistent interactions with supervisors or mentors to help manage tasks, reduce anxiety, and improve focus. It is especially helpful for people with attention-related challenges, memory difficulties, or executive functioning differences. By offering clear expectations and ongoing support, this accommodation promotes independence while addressing unique needs. Common synonyms include "increased supervision" and "regular check-ins."
Start by setting a consistent schedule for check-ins that works for both the employee and supervisor. Use clear, simple communication during meetings to review progress and adjust goals as needed. Encourage open dialogue to address challenges early. Maintain documentation of discussions to track improvements and identify patterns. Flexibility is key—adjust the frequency and format of supervision based on evolving needs to maximize support without causing unnecessary pressure.
