      ab: Background: Based on the International Classification of Functioning, disability entails a problem in participation, and work activity is a pillar for inclusion. The success of labor inclusion will depend on the labor adaptations that are adopted. Discrimination in the workplace remains one of the biggest obstacles to effective inclusion. Objective: Analyzing the evidence associated with workplace adaptations as an inclusion strategy for people with physical disabilities Methods: Literature published between 2012 and 2023 in English and Spanish. The databases were examined: Science Direct, Scopus, Taylor & Francis and free search and 10 articles were included to prepare this integrative review. The methodological quality followed the recommendations of the Equator network. Results: Most of the changes were organizational and accessibility related to flexible hours, the adoption of teleworking, the availability of elevators, preferential parking and adaptations in bathrooms. The main shortcomings reported were limitations in evaluating jobs, productivity costs and effectiveness of adjustments, redesigning tasks and managing disability in the work environment. Conclusions: Although there are international efforts aimed at improving the inclusion of people with disabilities in the workplace, the results are asymmetrical between accessibility and support. The development of reasonable accommodations in the workplace in pursuit of employment rights is still in its early stages.
