Consistent with the Pregnant Workers' Fairness Act (PWFA), the University of Utah provides reasonable accommodations to workers' limitations related to pregnancy, childbirth, or other related medical conditions. Breastfeeding, pumping, and medical conditions related to lactation are among the conditions that are covered under the PWFA. The University's Human Resources Management Department (UHRM) is charged with determining reasonable accommodations under the PWFA. Requests for accommodation are reviewed on a case-by-case basis with the help of the individual's home department leader(s) with a need to know, and as needed to process the request.
Under the PWFA, if an employee/faculty is experiencing barriers at work, due to pregnancy or related conditions, that impacts their ability to perform job functions or meet job expectations, they can request an accommodation to help remove such barrier(s).
Campus staff and faculty can use the University's Accommodation Request Form to identify the following:
After you complete your submission, UHRM will notify you if additional information is needed to evaluate your request, will discuss your request with your home department leader(s) (with a need-to-know basis), and will inform you of any accommodation(s) that can be provided.
Discussions with your department leader(s) are only performed as necessary to process your accommodation request. If you have questions or concerns, please contact hraccommodations@utah.edu, or 801-213-1346.
