摘要

President Obama has established a comprehensive agenda for enhancing equality of opportunity for persons with disabilities. The President's agenda includes 'increasing the employment rate of workers with disabilities by effectively implementing regulations that require the federal government and its contractors to employ people with disabilities.' Such regulations include Section 503 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 as amended (Section 503), its implementing regulations, the Vietnam Era Veterans' Readjustment Act of 1974 as amended (VEVRAA), and its implementing regulations require that government contractors provide equal opportunity (nondiscrimination) to qualified individuals with disabilities and qualified disabled veterans. In addition, under Section 503 and VEVRAA, contractors must take affirmative action to employ and advance in employment qualified individuals with disabilities and qualified disabled veterans, including recruitment, advertising, and job application procedures.1Section 503 and VEVRAA are administered by the Office of Federal Contract Compliance (OFCCP) in the Department of Labor. The purposes of this paper are thus to: 1. Describe and analyze the policy and practice 'lay of the land' regarding equal opportunity/nondiscrimination provisions and affirmative action programs for qualified individuals with disabilities under Section 503 and qualified disabled veterans under VEVRAA. 2. Review other civil rights statutes protecting qualified individuals from discrimination on the basis of disability to glean policies and practices that may enhance the effective implementation of affirmative action programs for qualified individuals with disabilities and qualified disabled veterans.
