Workplace Disability Accommodation Needs Assessment

Assesses how a disability or health condition affects someone's ability to perform daily work tasks and which accommodations are working or missing. Built for HR, disability management, and occupational health teams, with an AI follow-up that turns the single biggest functional barrier into a concrete, real-world example instead of a checkbox.

Q08
AI Interview

Identify the activity the respondent rated as most difficult and ask them to walk through a specific, recent day it got in the way of work — what happened, what workaround (if any) they used, and what would have made it easier. If they reported no significant difficulty anywhere, ask whether they anticipate needs changing soon (e.g., progressive condition, upcoming treatment) and what would prompt them to request support. Probe gently for any accommodation they've wanted to ask for but haven't, and why.

What’s included

  • AI follow-ups

    Adaptive probes on open-ended answers that pull out detail a static form would miss.

  • Attention checks

    Built-in safeguards against rushed answers and low-quality respondents.

  • AI-drafted copy

    Wording, ordering, and branching written by the AI — tuned to your research goal.

  • Auto report

    Themes, quotes, and a plain-English summary write themselves once responses come in.

How it compares

We reviewed the closest templates from other survey tools. Here’s what they do well — and where this template goes further.

Why this template

  • Includes a matrix and opinion-scale question that quantify difficulty and functional limitation across daily work tasks, not just a single generic checkbox
  • Uses an AI follow-up interview that identifies the single activity rated as most difficult and asks the respondent to walk through a real-world example of it, turning a rating into concrete detail
  • Separately captures accommodations currently in use, a ranked preference of potential accommodations, and confidence that current accommodations meet daily needs, giving HR/occupational health a fuller picture than a static checklist
  • Closes with an open-ended long-text question for anything not otherwise captured, plus demographic questions for equity/compliance reporting, before routing responses to the accommodation review team

Jotform

Disability Assessment Form Template

A static, drag-and-drop form template for capturing disability-related information, built on Jotform's general form builder. It's ready to field quickly and is easy to customize with their editor, but it functions as a fixed questionnaire rather than an adaptive interview. No mention of follow-up probing or automated scoring of individual responses.

What it does well

  • Quick to deploy using Jotform's widely-used drag-and-drop builder
  • Easily customizable fields and layout
  • Familiar form format for HR intake workflows

Where it falls short

  • No adaptive AI follow-up questions — every respondent sees the same static fields regardless of their answers
  • No automated per-response quality scoring
  • No voice-based interview option or guided task/screen-share capability

Typeform

Disability assessment form

A conversational, one-question-at-a-time form template built on Typeform's polished UI. It offers a nicer respondent experience than a plain form but the question flow and branching logic are still author-defined in advance, not generated dynamically from a respondent's specific answer. No published methodology for how any branching is scored or applied.

What it does well

  • Clean, conversational one-question-at-a-time interface
  • Strong visual design and mobile-friendly presentation
  • Simple to set up for basic screening use cases

Where it falls short

  • Logic branches are pre-set, not an AI follow-up that dynamically probes the respondent's specific stated barrier
  • No automated scoring of response quality or completeness
  • No voice AI interview mode or guided screen-share task functionality
