Equal Employment Opportunity

Overview

North Carolina Central University (NCCU) is an equal opportunity employer and does not discriminate against employees or applicants based on race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, age, national origin, disability, veteran status, or any other protected status. NCCU is committed to fostering an inclusive and respectful work environment where all individuals are welcomed, valued, and treated equitably in the terms and conditions of employment.

The Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) office is dedicated to upholding these policies and principles while supporting the University in providing optimal employment and educational experiences.

Equal Employment Opportunity Plan

What Is the Plan?

The Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) plan is a comprehensive document that analyzes the University’s relevant labor market data, as well as the University’s employment practices, to identify possible barriers to the participation of women and minorities in all levels of the University’s workforce.

Why Is It Important?

EEO practices are important for both employees and employers. On an individual basis, EEO accomplishes many things. First, EEO helps establish a baseline for acceptable behavior, which is important considering the vast array of lifestyles, values, and attitudes individuals have.

Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)

Reasonable Accommodation Policy (OSHR Policy)

It is the policy of the State of North Carolina and NCCU to reasonably accommodate qualified individuals with disabilities unless the accommodation would impose an undue hardship.

The EEO/AA Medical Release Authorization and Documentation of Disability Package is required to initiate a request for a reasonable accommodation.

If additional information is required regarding the ADA or reasonable accommodations, please contact James Staton, HR consultant, at j [email protected] or 919-530-6920.

Equal Employment Opportunity and Diversity Fundamentals Training (EEODF)

The Equal Employment Opportunity and Diversity Fundamentals course (EEODF), formerly referred to as the Equal Employment Opportunity Institute (EEOI), is mandatory training for state government executives, managers and supervisors that should be completed within the first year of the appointment. EEODF provides practical training in understanding roles and responsibilities in managing employees from different backgrounds and cultures, and the corresponding laws, policies, and employment practices and techniques complementing this purpose.
