If I have a disability and request an accommodation in order to use a contractors online application system, is the contractor required to provide the accommodation?
Yes. Contractors must provide reasonable accommodation that is needed to enable a qualified individual with a disability to have an equal opportunity to apply for job openings, unless the contractor can demonstrate that the accommodation would impose an undue hardship (significant difficulty or expense) on the operation of its business. The contractor is not obligated to provide the specific accommodation requested, but it must provide an accommodation that effectively enables an individual with a disability to apply for a position in a timely manner.
