Subject:    Accommodation Services Log

As an Equal Opportunity and Affirmative Action employer, UC San Diego is required to document disability and religious accommodations requested by University employees. An accommodation is any change in the work environment or in the way things are customarily performed that enables an individual with a disability and/or religious practice to experience equal employment opportunities. Examples of an accommodation include a modified work schedule, telecommuting, a leave of absence, providing equipment, and other relevant efforts.

There are a variety of accommodation efforts that are ongoing within vice chancellor areas. In order to document these efforts, Campus Human Resources has designed a tool that will assist with measuring UC San Diego’s combined efforts. Effective July 15, 2015, when a department receives a request for an accommodation by a University employee, the completion of an Accommodation Services Log form is required. The online form can be accessed at the following link:
https://hrweb.ucsd.edu/Accommodation

It should be noted that this form does not replace the current formal Interactive Process required for disability and religious accommodations requests.

UC San Diego is committed to ensuring that the University maintains full compliance with its nondiscrimination and affirmative action obligations, and Federal regulations.

Questions about the Accommodation Services Log may be directed to Redick Edwards, Associate Director of Equal Opportunity/Staff Affirmative Action, at raedwards@ucsd.edu, eosaa@ucsd.edu or (858) 534-1923.
