Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and Reasonable Accommodation

To ensure equal employment opportunities to qualified individuals with a disability, the Mississippi Community College Board will make reasonable accommodations for the known disability of an otherwise qualified individual, unless undue hardship on the operation of the agency would result. MCCB, adhering to the guidelines of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (Section 504), makes reasonable accommodations to employees and prospective employees with disabilities. Employees who may require a reasonable accommodation should contact the Human Resources Department.
