Arkansas Support Network recognizes the diversity of religious beliefs and is committed to providing equal employment opportunities to all employees, regardless of their religious beliefs and practices or lack thereof. Consistent with this commitment, the Company complies with Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and all applicable state and local laws that prohibit employment discrimination on the basis of religion. The Company will reasonably accommodate the sincerely held religious beliefs of employees if the accommodations would resolve a conflict between the individual's religious belief or practice and a work requirement, unless doing so would create an undue hardship or infringe on the rights of a person receiving services from ASN.
Requesting a Religious Accommodation
If you need an accommodation because of your religious beliefs or practices, make the request with Human Resources at asnhrdepartment@supports.org. Requests for an accommodation will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. You may be asked to include relevant information such as:
- A description of the proposed accommodation.
- The reason you need the accommodation.
- How the accommodation will help resolve the conflict between your religious beliefs or practices (or lack thereof) and your work
requirements.
After receiving your request, the Company will engage in an interactive dialogue with you to explore potential accommodations that could resolve the conflict between your religious beliefs or practices and work requirements. The Company encourages you to suggest specific reasonable accommodations. However, the Company is not required to make the specific accommodation requested by you and may provide an alternative accommodation, to the extent any reasonable accommodation can be made without imposing an undue hardship on the Company.
The Company will not discriminate or retaliate against employees who, in good faith, request a religious accommodation under this policy.
