If the DRC determines the University cannot effectively accommodate an employee in her current position, the employee may request permanent reassignment to a vacant University position for which she is qualified as a reasonable accommodation. Upon requesting reassignment, for a period of 30 days, the University will review vacant positions that have been posted to Talent or have been submitted to be posted. Once an employee requests reassignment, he will be unable to return to his current position, even if no position is identified during the 30 days to which the employee could be reassigned.
The DRC encourages employees who are interested in requesting reassignment as a reasonable accommodation to contact HR Benefits at (520) 621-3662.
