It is the policy of the Pierce County Library System to provide equal opportunity to all employees and to all applicants for employment. All personnel practices such as recruitment, hiring, promotions, training, discipline, and privileges of employment shall be administered in a manner which does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, ancestry, national origin, sex or age (except where sex or age is a bona fide occupational qualification as defined by the Washington State Human Rights Commission), marital status, sexual orientation, or the presence of any sensory, mental, or physical disability (unless such disability effectively prevents the performance of the essential functions required of the position and which cannot be accommodated without undue hardship), or veterans status, including disabled veterans and veterans of the Viet Nam era. This policy is in accord with the laws of the United States, State of Washington, and reaffirms Pierce County Library System's continuing commitment to provide equal opportunity to all employees and applicants for employment with respect to selection, terms and conditions of employment, assignments, training, transfers, promotions, and compensation.
