§ 19234 Disability Hiring Equity Review

Key Takeaways

  • •State agencies must check every year if they are unfairly not hiring people with disabilities for jobs they can do.
  • •If they find out they are not hiring enough people with disabilities, they must fix it.
  • •The goal is to make sure people with disabilities get a fair chance at jobs they are qualified for.

Example

A state office realizes they have hired very few people who use wheelchairs, even though many of them applied for jobs they could do.

The office must look into why this happened and make changes so more people who use wheelchairs get hired for jobs they are qualified for.

§ 19234 Disability Hiring Equity Review

Each state agency shall annually review its hiring activities designed to achieve the employment objectives established pursuant to subdivision (c) of Section 19233 to determine if any category of individuals with a disability have been disproportionately excluded on a non-job-related basis from employment. If any category has been so excluded, the agency shall correct that underrepresentation. (Amended by Stats. 1992, Ch. 913, Sec. 31. Effective January 1, 1993.)
