Equal Opportunity Non-Discrimination Policy

PAFA is committed to a policy of nondiscrimination in employment. PAFA does not discriminate in employment opportunities or practices on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, national origin, age, disability, marital status, familial status, or any other characteristic or circumstance protected by law.

This policy covers all aspects of employment, including selection, job assignment, compensation, discipline, termination, and terms, conditions and privileges of employment.

If you have questions or concerns about any type of discrimination in the workplace, you are encouraged to bring the issue to the attention of the Vice President of Human Resources or the President. Or, if for any reason you believe inappropriate to bring it to either of them, you can bring your concern to the Chair of the Human Resources Committee of the Board of Trustees. No adverse employment action will be taken for concerns or reports made in good faith. Further, anyone found to be engaging in any type of unlawful discrimination will be subject to corrective action, up to and including termination of employment.

As an Equal Opportunity Employer, we must comply with federal government record-keeping and reporting requirements. As such, PAFA periodically reports statistical information about employees by job category, race, ethnicity, and sex. To collect this information, employees complete a voluntary self-identification form. This form is kept confidential and used solely for analytical and reporting requirement purposes. This form is processed and maintained separately from your personnel file.
