CareerConnect Virtual Worksites

Welcome to the CareerConnect® Virtual Worksites. These illustrations are provided to give you examples of how employees with vision loss can perform their duties in a variety of work environments. Due to differences in visual functioning and job responsibilities, not all workers with vision loss will need or use the same accommodations. However, these virtual worksites graphically demonstrate the range of tools and equipment that might be helpful to an employee who is blind or has low vision. Each page contains a graphic with embedded links that connect you to detailed information about the accommodations; including product reviews, product evaluations, and, in some instances, videos of the products in use. All of the links are listed below the graphics as well.
