Applicant Data Record
Applicants are considered for all positions, and employees are treated during employment without regard to race, creed, color, religion, sex sexual orientation, national origin, age, disability, marital or veteran status, or being a member of the Reserves or National Guard.
As employers/government contractors, we also comply with government regulations including but not limited to affirmative action responsibilities as required under Executive Order 11246.
Solely to help us comply with government record keeping, reporting and other legal obligations as required under these and other laws and regulations, we ask that you please fill out this Applicant Data Record. This data is for analysis and affirmative action only. Submission of this information is voluntary. Failure to provide this information will not jeopardize or adversely affect any consideration you may receive for employment. We appreciate your cooperation.
This data is for periodic government reporting and will be kept in a Confidential File separate from the Application for Employment.
We are a Government contractor subject to the Vietnam Era Veterans' Readjustment Assistance Act of 1974, as amended by the Jobs for Veterans Act of 2002, 38 U.S.C. 4212 (VEVRAA), which requires Government contractors to take affirmative action to employ and advance in employment: (1) disabled veterans; (2) recently separated veterans; (3) active duty wartime or campaign badge veterans; and (4) Armed Forces service medal veterans. These classifications are defined as follows:
Protected veterans may have additional rights under USERRA--the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act. In particular, if you were absent from employment in order to perform service in the uniformed service, you may be entitled to be reemployed by your employer in the position you would have obtained with reasonable certainty if not for the absence due to service. For more information, call the U.S. Department of Labor's Veterans Employment and Training Service (VETS), toll-free, at 1-866-4-USA-DOL.
If you believe you belong to any of the categories of protected veterans listed above, please indicate by checking the appropriate box below. As a Government contractor subject to VEVRAA, we request this information in order to measure the effectiveness of the outreach and positive recruitment efforts we undertake pursuant to VEVRAA.
If you are a disabled veteran it would assist us if you tell us whether there are accommodations we could make that would enable you to perform the essential functions of the job, including special equipment, changes in the physical layout of the job, changes in the way the job is customarily performed, provision of personal assistance services or other accommodations. This information will assist us in making reasonable accommodations for your disability.
Submission of this information is voluntary and refusal to provide it will not subject you to any adverse treatment. The information provided will be used only in ways that are not inconsistent with the Vietnam Era Veterans' Readjustment Assistance Act of 1974, as amended.
The information you submit will be kept confidential, except that (i) supervisors and managers may be informed regarding restrictions on the work or duties of disabled veterans, and regarding necessary accommodations; (ii) first aid and safety personnel may be informed, when and to the extent appropriate, if you have a condition that might require emergency treatment; and (iii) Government officials engaged in enforcing laws administered by the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs, or enforcing the Americans with Disabilities Act, may be informed.
It is our policy to provide equal employment and advancement opportunities to all qualified individuals in all aspects of employment including but not limited to hiring, training, promotion, compensation, and all other personnel actions without regard to Disabled Veterans, Recently Separated Veterans, Active Wartime or Campaign Badge Veterans, or Armed Forces Service Medal Veterans or any other status that is protected by law. To achieve this goal, we are dedicated to taking affirmative action on behalf of Disabled Veterans, Recently Separated Veterans, Active Wartime or Campaign Badge Veterans, or Armed Forces Service Medal Veterans in compliance with Vietnam Era Veterans' Readjustment Assistance Act of 1974, as amended by the Jobs for Veterans Act of 2002, 38 U.S.C. 4212 (VEVRAA). Employees and applicants are protected from coercion, intimidation, interference or discrimination for:
If you are an employee and a Disabled Veteran, Recently Separated Veteran, Active Wartime or Campaign Badge Veteran, or Armed Forces Service Medal Veteran that is covered by this program and would like to be considered under the affirmative action program, please tell us.
Why are you being asked to complete this form?
Because we do business with the government, we must reach out to, hire, and provide equal opportunity to qualified people with disabilities1. To help us measure how well we are doing, we are asking that you tell us if you have a disability or if you ever had a disability. Completing this form is voluntary, but we hope that you will choose to fill it out. If you are applying for a job, any answer you give will be kept private and will not be used against you in any way.
If you already work for us, your answer will not be used against you in any way. Because a person may become disabled at any time, we are required to ask all our employees to update their information every five years. You may voluntarily self-identify as having a disability on this form without fear of any punishment because you did not identify as having a disability earlier.
How do I know if I have a disability?
You are considered to have a disability if you have a physical or mental impairment or medical condition that substantially limits a major life activity, or if you have a history of such an impairment or medical condition.
Disabilities include, but are not limited to:
Reasonable Accommodation Notice

Please tell us if you require a reasonable accommodation to apply for a job or perform your job. Examples of reasonable accommodation include making a change to the application process or work procedures, providing documents in an alternate format, using a sign language interpreter or using specialized equipment.
