It is the policy of UW-L to provide reasonable accommodations for qualified individuals with disabilities who are employees or applicants for employment. UW-La Crosse will adhere to all applicable federal and state laws, regulations, and guidelines with respect to providing reasonable accommodations as required to afford equal employment opportunity to qualified disabled individuals. Reasonable accommodations will be provided in a timely and cost effective manner. Employment opportunities shall not be denied because of the need to make reasonable accommodations to an individual's disability. A copy of the UW-L Reasonable Accommodation Policy can be viewed at the Human Resources Office. Questions regarding this policy can be directed to Cedric Steine in Human Resources, 144 Graff Main Hall.

Employment at UW-L will require a criminal background check. A pending criminal charge or conviction will not necessarily disqualify an applicant. In compliance with the Wisconsin Fair Employment Act, the University does not discriminate on the basis of arrest or conviction record.
A complete copy of UW-L's Criminal Background Check policy can be found on the HR webpage http://www.uwlax.edu/hr/forms/CBC/CBC.htm or contact Joy Gutknecht 608/785-8640.
