Alabama DOL Equal Opportunity

“Equal Opportunity
An employer who receives Federal financial assistance has a responsibility to provide potential employees the same treatment as all others seeking a position. Most forms of discrimination are not only unfair, but illegal…

The recipient must not discriminate in any of the following areas:

• Deciding who will be admitted, or have access, to any Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) Title I-financially assisted program or activity;
• Providing opportunities in, or treating any person with regard to, such a program or activity; or
• Making employment decisions in the administration of, or in connection with, such a program or activity.

Recipients of federal financial assistance must take reasonable steps to ensure that communications with individuals with disabilities are as effective as communications with others. This means that, upon request at no cost to the individual, recipients are required to provide appropriate auxiliary aids and services to qualified individuals with disabilities.”
