Disability Survey
The Disability Survey is completed annually via OneNet Training internet site. This survey has two purposes. The first is to comply with equal employment opportunity and non-discrimination laws, which require State agencies to collect disability-related data, to report that data (in aggregate form), and to take steps to ensure equitable inclusion within State employment of people with disabilities. The second is to identity employees needing assistance in the event of an emergency evacuation/shelter in place event. Because a person may become diabled at any time, employees update their information annually.
The Labor Force Analysis for People with Disabilities (DHR-34-AAP) determines if the agency is underutilized or at parity. Enter the total number of employees; multiply by the percent of people with disabilities in the Illinois labor force, which is 6.24% (updated annually), and this will indicate the labor force number of people with disabilities you need in your agency workforce. If the number of employees with disabilities in the agency is greater than your labor force number, then your agency is at parity. If you have underutilization, then your agency must establish numerical goals for people with disabilities.
