UNLV is committed to providing a workplace and educational environment, as well as other benefits, programs and activities, that are free from discrimination, harassment, and retaliation. To ensure compliance with federal and state civil rights laws and regulations, and to affirm its commitment to promoting the goals of fairness and equity in all aspects of the educational program or activity, UNLV has developed internal policies and procedures that provide a prompt, fair, and impartial process for those involved in an allegation of discrimination or harassment on the basis of protected class status, and for allegations of retaliation. UNLV values and upholds the equal dignity of all members of its community and strives to balance the rights of the parties in the grievance process during what is often a difficult time for all those involved. The President has designated the Office of Equal Employment and Title IX as the office who will respond to complaints of unlawful discrimination and harassment.
The Office of Equal Employment and Title IX is also responsible for overseeing the interactive process for employees required under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).
