Ill. Admin. Code tit. 4, § 150.10 - Purpose
a) The purpose of
the Illinois Criminal Justice Information Authority's grievance procedure for
discrimination complaints is to establish a formalized method whereby
discrimination complaints by qualified individuals with disabilities can be
detected at the beginning stages, investigated, and, hopefully,
resolved.
b) To that end, the
Illinois Criminal Justice Information Authority (Authority) shall respond to
complaints of discrimination by qualified individuals with disabilities. The
Authority's Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) Officer shall be responsible for
the investigation of complaints, documentation of facts, and presentation of
findings, and for advising management regarding recommendations to resolve the
dispute.
c) It is the intention of
the Authority to foster open communication with all individuals requesting
readily accessible programs, services and activities. The Authority requires
that each program, service and activity offered, when viewed in its entirety,
be readily accessible to and usable by qualified individuals with disabilities
and encourages Authority supervisors of agency programs, services and
activities to respond to requests for reasonable accommodations before they
become discrimination complaints.
d) The use of this grievance procedure for
discrimination complaints does not preclude the right of a member of the public
to file a charge directly with the Illinois Department of Human Rights or the
United States Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC). The filing of any
complaint of alleged discrimination may not be used as a basis for future
retaliation adversely affecting the rights of any member of the
public.
