to inform the public of the creation of a new system of records relating to accommodation requests from Access Board employees and applicants.
Section 501 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 requires federal employers to provide reasonable accommodations to qualified individuals with disabilities who are employees or applicants, unless doing so would cause undue hardship.
29 U.S.C. 791. Similarly, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 requires an employer, once on notice, to reasonably accommodate an employee whose sincerely-held religious belief, practice, or observance conflicts with a work requirement, unless providing the accommodation would create an undue hardship. 42 U.S.C. 2000e. Reasonable accommodations provide modifications or adjustments to: 1 The job application process; 2 the work environment; and/or 3 the manner in which a position is customarily performed. The proposed records system is necessary to allow the Access Board to collect and maintain records on employees or applicants who request reasonable accommodations based on either disability or sincerely-held religious belief, practice, or observance.
Additionally, it will also enable the Board to track and report the processing of accommodation requests agency-wide to comply with applicable laws and regulations.
