| Find a different placement that involves more social interaction or adapt his role in the current placement

| Train them to work for a certain period of time - then provide a 5-min break to socialize with customers
|
| Allow him to work with people as interest is a better indicator of performance than skills
|
| He should be given a role where he can interact more readily with customers.
|
| Provide an opportunity for John to begin training as a checkout cashier or provide him another position in the grocery store where he has more opportunities for interaction with people
|
| Discuss with the store the strengths of the client and how we can better support him and his wants with the everyday functions of the store to be successful.

| Finding meaningful work
|
| |
| |
| Time should be set aside for this individual to interact with others and direct teaching about environmental cues/how to remain on task.
|
| Find out if he can be transitioned to a more face-to-face position, such as a store greeter.
Implement a self-management system where he can have a short break to interact with customers after having placed so much stock on the shelves.
|
| engage in more meaningful social interactions with other peers,
|
| N/A
|
| Client can be switched to a stocking role that might be better suited with less distractions from customers
|
| More training on the position itself and what the expectations are. Program support from the BCBA. Or re-think position, perhaps something more interactive could be a better fit.
|
| Sounds like the right place but the wrong job. Is there any opportunity for John to split his shift or work his way up to checkout / bagging? The BCBA should develop an intervention that supports John's interest in interacting with others at the job but helps him focus more in the task at hand, especially with others are present.

|
| Provide clarification of the role and give guidelines for improvement and possible reinforcement to checkout upon completing set criteria for stock. Understand social cues for when to speak vs when not.
|
| I’d inquire if there could be another job, at this placement, where he could be around people vs stacking shelves. As he is off task and not completing his job while he is distracted by talking to people, could they incorporate opportunities to interact with others.
Perhaps he needs a staff member to help him keep on task
|
| - Determine if there is a different job, such as working the cash register, that John can be trained in that is more social. Work towards his strengths and interests
