Disability Discrimination Laws Sample Clauses

Disability Discrimination Laws. Because the Federal and State disability discrimination laws require accommodations for individuals protected under those Acts, and because these accommodations must be determined on an individual, case-by-case basis, the parties agree that the provisions of this Agreement may be disregarded in order for the City to avoid discrimination relative to hiring, promotion, granting permanency, transfer, layoff, reassignment, termination, rehire, rates of pay, job and duty classification, seniority, leaves, fringe benefits, training opportunities, hours of work or other terms and privileges of employment only to the extent necessary to reasonably accommodate an individual covered by the respective disability laws, who meets the minimum requirements for the position, and who has notified the employer of his/her disability. The Association recognizes that the City has the legal obligation to meet with the individual employee to be accommodated before any adjustment is made in working conditions. Prior to disregarding any provision of the Agreement in order to undertake required accommodations for an individual protected by the law, the City will provide the Association with written notice of its intent to disregard the provision, and will allow the Association the opportunity to meet and confer over modifications of the Agreement on a case-by-case basis. Failure to reach agreement shall not preclude the City from implementation during the term of the Agreement. Any accommodation provided to an individual protected by the law shall not establish a past practice, nor shall it be cited or used as evidence of a past practice in the grievance/arbitration procedure.
