APPLICANT’S CERTIFICATION AND AGREEMENT

AGREEMENTS: “I understand that the employment relationship at the Authority is ‘at will’, meaning that it may be terminated by myself or the Authority at any time with or without notice and with or without cause. I also understand that no other statement, made orally or in writing, may change this at will relationship unless expressly stated in a document signed by both the Authority’s General Manager and by me stating that the at will relationship has been modified. I agree that, in applying for a position with the Authority, I am willing to accept employment, if offered, based on these terms.”

“I agree that any action or suit against the Authority, its agents or employees, arising out of my employment or termination of employment, including, but not limited to, claims arising under State, but not Federal, civil rights statutes, must be brought within 180 days of the event giving rise to the claims or be forever barred. I waive any limitation periods to the contrary. I further agree that if I should bring any non-statutory action or claim arising out of my employment against the Authority, in which the Authority prevails, I will pay to the Authority any and all such costs incurred by the Authority in defense of said claims or actions, including attorney fees. I further agree that my employment is conditional until such time as the results of my post offer physical, drug and alcohol tests are known.”

PROBATION PERIOD: It is understood that I shall be considered as on a temporary basis during a probationary period of 6 months/180 days from date of hiring and may be discharged or laid off before the expiration of the period without recourse.

STATEMENT BY APPLICANT: I hereby authorize my former employers to furnish their records of any service, my reason for leaving their employ, together with all information they may have concerning me, whether on record or not. I also release them and their company, from any liability for any damage whatsoever for issuing same.

It is agreed that any misrepresentations by me, in this application, will be sufficient cause for its cancellation or for dismissal from the authority if I am employed.

I hereby certify the facts set forth in the above employment application are true and complete to the best of my knowledge. You are hereby authorized to make any investigation of my personal history and financial and credit record through any investigative or credit agencies or bureaus of your choice.

VOLUNTARY SELF-IDENTIFICATION OF A DISABILITY

Federal law requires employers to provide reasonable accommodation to qualified individuals with disabilities. Please tell us if you require a reasonable accommodation to apply for a job or to 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. Why are you being asked to complete this form? As an employer/government employer we must reach out to hire and provide equal opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. To help us measure how well we are doing, we are asking you to 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. 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. You may voluntarily self-identify as having a disability on this form without fear of any discrimination. 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 or record of such an impairment or medical condition.

Disabilities include, but are not limited to:

  • Blindness
  • Autism
  • Bipolar disorder
  • Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
  • Deafness
  • Cerebral palsy
  • Major depression
  • Obsessive Compulsive Disorder
  • Cancer
  • HIV/AIDS
  • Multiple sclerosis (MS)
  • Impairments requiring the use of a wheelchair
  • Diabetes
  • Epilepsy
