It depends on the type of religious accommodation being requested. For requests seeking an accommodation to the UPS Uniform and Personal Appearance Guidelines, and where conditional approval is granted, any testing, training, or other job assessments will proceed at the same time the request is being processed. In other words, the testing and training will not be delayed while the request is pending. As explained above, conditional approval of Appearance Guideline-related requests will be granted unless the accommodation would create a safety concern or undue hardship. For all other religious accommodation requests, a final determination of the request should be made before any testing, training, or job assessments are permitted. This rule applies to employees and applicants.
