OSU GEN: Policy on Assistance to Disabled Faculty and Staff

General University Policies Manual
Revised: 10/16/1986

Policy

Oregon State University is an equal opportunity and affirmative action employer that does not discriminate on the basis of disability as required by the Rehabilitation Act of 1973. Moreover, it is incumbent on the University to develop policies that encourage all of its departments to hire disabled individuals

Since any financial disincentive to a particular unit to hire or retain a disabled individual may discourage equitable treatment, this policy provides for special assistance required for disabled faculty members and staff to be provided centrally.

Administration

The Affirmative Action Office will administer this program. Faculty and staff members needing specialized assistance should apply through their departments to the Affirmative Action Office. Assistance appropriate to the disability will be provided.

The Affirmative Action Office, working with the Program for Disabled Students (Office of Dean of Students) and the Department of Human Resources, will review the extent of help needed and will make necessary arrangements for services and assistance. Each year they will provide a summary of the assistance provided and associated costs to the executive administrators.
