Americans with Disabilities Act Policy:*
In compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act and the New Jersey
Law Against Discrimination, the Borough does not discriminate based on
disability. The Borough will endeavor to make every work environment
handicap accessible and all future construction and renovation of
facilities will be in accordance with applicable barrier-free Federal and
State regulations and the Americans with Disabilities Act Accessibility
Guidelines.
It is the policy of the Borough to comply with all relevant and applicable
provisions of the Americans with Disabilities Act and the New Jersey Law
Against Discrimination. We will not discriminate against any qualified
employee or job applicant with respect to any terms, conditions, or
privileges of employment on the basis of a known disability. We will also
make reasonable accommodations to known physical or mental limitations of
all employees and applicants with disabilities, provided that the
individual is otherwise qualified to safely perform the essential
functions of the job and also provided that the accommodation does not
impose under hardship on the Borough.
The Business Administrator shall initiate an interactive dialogue with
disabled employees and prospective employees to identify reasonable
accommodations. All decisions with regard to reasonable accommodation
shall be made by the Business Administrator. Employees who are assigned
to a new position as a reasonable accommodation will receive the salary
for their new position. The Americans with Disabilities Act does not
require the Borough to offer permanent “light duty”, relocate essential
job functions, or provide personal use items such as eyeglasses, hearing
aids, wheelchairs, etc.
Please confirm receipt of this email.
