Board Policy	No. 4032

CLOVIS UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT

PERSONNEL General
REASONABLE ACCOMMODATION

PURPOSE:	 To establish a policy to ensure that job applicants and employees are not discriminated against on the basis of disability.

The Board recognizes the District's ongoing duty to prohibit discrimination against job applicants and employees on the basis of disability, in accordance with state and federal law. Accordingly, the Board directs the Superintendent or designee to develop administrative regulations and internal procedures to engage employees in an interactive dialogue and to reasonably accommodate otherwise qualified employees and job applicants with known disabilities, except when such accommodation would cause an undue hardship, endanger an employee’s or applicant’s health or safety, or endanger the health or safety of others even with reasonable accommodation.

No employee or job applicant who requests an accommodation for his/her physical or mental disability shall be subjected to discrimination or retaliation. (Government Code 12940)

The Board’s intent in adopting this policy is to meet all requirements of applicable law. Nothing in this policy or the accompanying administrative regulations or other documents or procedures is intended to deprive an employee or job applicant of any right otherwise conferred by law, as the applicable law may change from time-to-time. In addition, nothing in this policy is intended to create, on behalf of any employee or job applicant, a right or privilege that exceeds a right otherwise provided under applicable law.

If a conflict between applicable law and the District’s policies, regulations, or other documents or procedures exists, the applicable law shall control.
