PERSONNEL

Reasonable Accommodation Requests

Employees, who because of a disability, could with assistance perform the essential functions of their positions, may submit a request for reasonable accommodation using ADA Form 1 to the Department of Human Resources. Upon receipt of ADA Form 1, that department will verify the information provided by the employee by forwarding ADA Form 2 to the health care providers identified by the employee on ADA Form 1.

Within fifteen (15) working days of the receipt of all ADA Form 2's and based on the information received on those forms, the Assistant Superintendent of Human Resources, assisted by the City Attorney’s Office and other appropriate division personnel, in conjunction with the employee, will review the request for accommodation.

Should the employee find the response unsatisfactory, the grievance procedure in Regulation 4-4.1 may be used to seek redress.
