ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) and Accessibility The Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (Title I) prohibits private employers, state and local governments, employment agencies and labor unions from discriminating against qualified individuals with disabilities in job application procedures, hiring, firing, advancement, compensation, job training, and other terms, conditions, and privileges of employment. The ADA covers employers with 15 or more employees, including state and local governments. It also applies to employment agencies and to labor organizations. The ADA's nondiscrimination standards also apply to federal sector employees under section 501 of the Rehabilitation Act, as amended, and its implementing rules. Reasonable Accommodation A reasonable accommodation is any modification or adjustment to a job or the work environment that will enable a qualified applicant or employee with a disability to participate in the application process or to perform essential job functions. Reasonable accommodation also includes adjustments to assure that a qualified individual with a disability has rights and privileges in employment equal to those of employees without disabilities. Disabilities Resources Department site District Accessibility Committee The District Accessibility Committee is established to: assist the District in interpretation of and compliance with Section 504 and 508 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, the Americans with Disabilities Act, and other related laws and regulations; identify and recommend to the District the removal of any barriers for persons with disabilities; develop and recommend District policy to ensure the prevention of future barriers for persons with disabilities; develop and maintain District procedures that ensure the prevention of barriers for persons with disabilities; conduct regular assessment of accessibility of District facilities, programs and technology for the ADA and Section 508 Transition Plans; review and monitor progress toward the removal of identified barriers; develop a District evacuation plan for persons with disabilities and conduct regular trainings for staff and faculty; promote the knowledge and understanding of accessibility.
