What does being an equal employment opportunity employer mean?
eXp is an equal employment opportunity employer. Every employee has the right to work in surroundings that are free from all forms of unlawful discrimination. eXp will not engage in or tolerate any discrimination in the workplace prohibited by local, state, or federal law. Specifically, no employee will be discriminated against on the basis of his or her race, gender, religion, age, physical or mental disability, marital status or civil partnership/union status, national origin, veteran status, ancestral medical condition, genetic characteristics, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, or any other basis prohibited by applicable federal, state or local law.
eXp will provide reasonable accommodation for the known disabilities of employees or applicants where such accommodations will enable the individual to perform the essential functions of his or her position. Any employee or applicant who believes he or she may need reasonable accommodation should notify Human Resources. Although the need for accommodations is determined on a case-by-case basis, generally the Company and the employee engage in an interactive process with the employee’s healthcare provider(s) to confirm the existence of the condition, its limitations in the workplace, and possible reasonable accommodations. The employee must cooperate with the Company in this process, which may include authorizing the Company to communicate with the employee’s healthcare providers.
