Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)

The Georgia Peace Officer Standards & Training (POST) Council complies with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and other applicable laws, rules, and regulations that prohibits discrimination of employment based on a disability.

If you are a qualified individual with a disability under the ADA, you are entitled to a reasonable accommodation that does not pose an undue hardship, or substantial negative impact on the business needs of the organization. Reasonable accommodation may be requested for the following purposes:

  • To complete the employment application process.
  • To perform essential job functions.
  • To have the same benefits and privileges as non-disabled employees.

Note: Some reasonable accommodations (e.g., readers, interpreters, and braille/alternative formatted materials) require advance notice. Requests for reasonable accommodations will be evaluated on a case by case basis. A connection must exist between your condition and the accommodation(s) that you are requesting.

Reasonable accommodation requests should be submitted in writing to your division director or emailed to ada@gapost.org. You may be required to provide additional documentation to properly evaluate your request. This information, if required, will be maintained in your confidential medical records file (separate from your official personnel file) and will only be used to evaluate your accommodation request(s).

The Georgia POST Council is an Equal Opportunity Employer. We do not discriminate based on race, color, religion, sex (including pregnancy, sexual orientation, or gender identity), national origin, disability, age, genetic information, or any other related statuses, protected by applicable state and federal statutes.
