Chapter 1. NASA Policy on Reasonable Accommodations

1.1 NASA's policy is to fully comply with the reasonable accommodation requirements of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended. Under the law, Federal agencies must provide reasonable accommodation to qualified employees or applicants with disabilities, unless to do so would cause undue hardship. NASA is committed to providing reasonable accommodations to its employees and applicants for employment in order to assure that individuals with disabilities have full access to equal employment opportunity. These requirements cover applicants for, and employees in part-time and full time positions. These requirements also apply to NASA interns, fellows, coops, visiting scientists and detailees that are not in a civil service status. NASA provides reasonable accommodations:

1.2 NASA will process requests for reasonable accommodation and, where appropriate, provide reasonable accommodation in a prompt, fair, and efficient manner.
