This role will be working on the Accommodations team in Integrated Leaves responsible for administering end‑to‑end workplace accommodation cases and guiding employees and managers through the full ADA interactive process. Manages accommodation requests related to disability, pregnancy and childbirth (including lactation), religious practices, and return‑to‑work restrictions. The associate reviews documentation, communicates with employees and leaders, coordinates next steps, and ensures that each case is handled in a timely, confidential, and compliant manner.

This position plays a key role in supporting an inclusive workplace by helping employees receive effective accommodations that enable them to perform their essential job functions.

The HR Associate maintains accurate case documentation, tracks accommodation milestones, and proactively follows up on pending information to keep cases moving forward. While the role manages standard and moderately complex accommodation cases independently, it partners with the Workplace Accommodation Consultant and Leave of Absence team when escalations or highly complex issues arise. This position is ideal for someone who excels in organization, communication, and problem‑solving, and who is motivated by helping employees navigate important moments in their work experience.

This is a hybrid role that requires regular meetings at a variety of Legacy locations across the Portland Metro area.
Candidates must reside in Oregon or Washington. On days when onsite activity is not required, individuals in this role may work remotely.
