Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability survey

Why are you being asked to complete this survey?

Miami University seeks to provide equal opportunity to qualified people with disabilities in hiring and employmenti.   Because Miami University does business with the federal government, we are required to survey our employees to help us measure how well we are doing. We are asking you to tell us if you currently have a disability or if you have ever had a disability. Completing this survey is voluntary, but we hope that you will choose to fill it out.
 
If you already work for Miami, your answer cannot and will not be used against you in any way. Because a person may become disabled at any time, we are required to ask all of our employees to update their information every five years.

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
  • Post-traumatic 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
  • Schizophrenia
  • Missing limbs or partially missing limbs
  • Intellectual disability (previously called mental retardation)
  • Epilepsy
  • Muscular dystrophy

Reasonable Accommodation Notice

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.  If you feel that you will need a reasonable accommodation you may contact the Mary Jane Leveline in the Department of Human Resources at (513) 529-2027 or by email at levelimj@miamioh.edu.
