Metropolitan Housing Alliance (MHA) Employment Selection Policy

All employment applications must be on a form furnished by the Housing Authority. Resumes may be submitted with employment applications provided they do not contain family or personal data. Applications must state specifically which MHA job opening the applicant is seeking employment.

A Selection Committee and/or hiring manager(s) as deemed appropriate by the Executive Director will screen applicants, and make hiring recommendations.

Thank you for expressing an interest in career opportunities with Metropolitan Housing Alliance.

The Company's management affirms that it is our policy to afford equal opportunity in all personnel practices to all associates and applicants for employment regardless of race, color, religion, sex, age (40 and over), pregnancy, national origin, disability, veteran status or any other protected factor. This policy is extended to all personnel actions taken in all job titles, including but not limited to: hiring, placement, upgrading, transfer, and promotion; implementing social and recreational programs; determining rates of pay, benefits, and other forms of compensation; selection for training; discipline; layoff, termination and rehire. It is the Company's objective to obtain and promote individuals qualified and/or trainable for positions solely on the basis of job-related standards of education, training, experience, and personal qualifications.

If you have a disability or are a covered veteran and would like to identify yourself for consideration under Metropolitan Housing Alliance affirmative action program, please contact the Human Resources Department. The disclosure of any information concerning disability or veteran status is strictly voluntary, and the failure or refusal to provide such information will not subject an employee to discharge or other disciplinary action or disqualify an applicant from consideration. All information obtained concerning employees or job applicants with disabilities or who are covered veterans will be kept confidential and will be used only in accordance with applicable federal and/or state laws and regulations.

All employment decisions are made on the basis of job qualifications and the ability to perform the essential functions of the job in question, and Metropolitan Housing Alliance is committed to making reasonable accommodations whenever necessary to allow qualified persons with disabilities to enjoy equal employment opportunity. Employees who need accommodations to perform one or more of the essential functions of their jobs are encouraged to discuss the need for accommodation with their supervisors or the Human Resources Department. An employee’s request for an accommodation will be treated confidentially insofar as is practicable, and Metropolitan Housing Alliance will make good faith efforts to accommodate any employee’s disability, provided the accommodation does not result in an undue hardship for the Company. Although Metropolitan Housing Alliance will endeavor to provide an accommodation that is satisfactory to the employee, the accommodation provided by the Company may not necessarily be the accommodation requested or preferred by the employee.

Our pre-employment process consists of a background check and a motor vehicle driving record (depending on position applied for). We are an Equal Opportunity Employer.

The undersigned understands and agrees that:

1. Any material misrepresentation or deliberate omission of a fact in my application may be justification for refusal of, or if employed, termination from, employment.

It is my understanding that the MHA may make a thorough investigation of my entire work and personal history and may verify all data given in my application for employment, related papers, or oral interviews. I authorize such investigation and the giving and receiving of any information requested by MHA and I release from liability any person giving or receiving any such information. I understand the falsification of data so given or other derogatory information discovered as a result of the investigation may prevent my being hired, or if hired, may subject me to immediate dismissal.
3. I agree that MHA may terminate my employment at any time without liability for wages or salary except such as may have been earned by the date of such termination. If requested by management at any time, I agree to submit to search of my personal or of any locker that may be assigned to me, and I hereby waive all claims for damages on account of such examination. I authorize any physician or hospital to release any information that may be necessary to determine my ability to perform the duties of a job for which I am being considered. This may be done prior to employment or during my employment with MHA.
