THE INTERACTIVE PROCESS. An employee starts the interactive process by requesting a reasonable accommodation, that is, a statement that an employee needs a work-related adjustment or change for a reason related to a mental or physical disability. This request may be directed to the employee’s manager, Strategic People Partner, or People Management and may be made verbally or in writing by the employee, or by someone on his or her behalf.

Participants in the interactive process include the employee, the employee’s healthcare provider, and other appropriate corporate representatives. The employee must respond to reasonable requests for information in a timely manner throughout the interactive process. If an employee’s manager becomes aware of an employee’s disability and the possible need for an accommodation (e.g., an employee mentions a difficulty in performing work duties due to medical treatment for a health condition), the manager must contact their Strategic People Partner or People Management.
