§ 19232 Disability Employment Affirmative Action

Key Takeaways

  • •State jobs must be fair for people with disabilities who can work.
  • •Every state office must make a plan each year to hire more people with disabilities.
  • •The plan must have clear goals and deadlines, and anyone can ask to see it.

Example

A person in a wheelchair applies for a job at a state office.

The office must give them a fair chance to get the job, just like anyone else. If the office doesn’t have enough workers with disabilities, they have to make a plan to hire more and show it to the public if asked.
