SVCC is Committed to Equal Opportunity / Affirmative Action and Diversity

Our College is committed to providing equal employment and educational opportunity for all employees, job applicants and students without regard to race, sex, color, national origin, religion, age, veteran status, political affiliation, genetics, or disability in accordance with the Governor's Executive Order on Equal Opportunity and state and federal laws. The college will reasonably accommodate qualified individuals with disabilities whenever the individual is otherwise qualified to safely perform all essential functions of the position. Equal opportunity extends to all aspects of employment including hiring, transfers, promotions, training, terminations, working conditions, compensation, benefits, and other terms and conditions of employment.  Southside complies with federal and state equal employment opportunity laws and strives to keep the workplace free from all forms of unlawful discrimination, including harassment and retaliation.

Unlawful discrimination in any form is a serious offense that will not be tolerated in state employment.  The Department of Human Resource Management's Policies and Procedures Manual sets forth the relevant policies of the Commonwealth.  If you believe you are a victim of unlawful discrimination, several avenues of redress are available to you, including filing a complaint with SVCC's EEO Coordinator, Vice President of Finance and Administration at 434-949-1005, the grievance procedure, and the state and federal discrimination complaint processes.
