Reassignment and Reasonable Accommodation Sample Clauses

Reassignment and Reasonable Accommodation. 1) As an alternative to or in addition to Pregnancy Disability Leave, the University shall grant a pregnant Nurse’s request for temporary reassignment to a less strenuous or hazardous position at the Nurse’s same salary rate when medically advisable according to the Nurse's health care provider, if the reassignment can be reasonably accommodated. For the purpose of this Section, a temporary reassignment includes a temporary modification of the Nurse's own position to make it less strenuous or hazardous. A temporary reassignment under this Section shall not be counted toward a Nurse's entitlement of up to four (4) months of Pregnancy Disability Leave, unless the Nurse is also on a reduced work schedule or an intermittent leave schedule. When the Nurse’s health care provider certifies that the reassignment is no longer medically advisable, the University shall return the Nurse to the Nurse’s same position or a comparable position in accordance with §D.5., below. 2) If the Nurse’s health care provider certifies that reasonable accommodations other than reassignment and/or leave on an intermittent or reduced schedule basis are medically advisable, the University shall engage in the interactive process with the Nurse to identify and implement the reasonable accommodation(s) that are appropriate under the circumstances.
