The University of Missouri-Kansas City complies
with Title IX of the Educational Amendment of 1972 which ensures that
all employees and students are not victims of sex discrimination. To
ensure compliance with this policy of nondiscrimination on the basis of
sex, the University has taken the following steps:
- The University recruits employees of both sexes for all jobs except where sex is a bona fide occupational qualification.
- Advertisements in journals, newspapers and other media for
employment do not express a sexual preference unless sex is a bona fide
occupational qualification for the position.
- Personnel policies for the University explicitly state that there
will be no discrimination on account of sex.
- Promotion and job advancement opportunities except where
governed by the rules and regulations of tenure are afforded to all
employees regardless of sex. The University makes no distinction based
upon sex in employment opportunities, wages, hours or other conditions
of employment.
- Policies and practices of the University assure that appropriate physical facilities are available for both sexes.
- Women employees are not penalized in their conditions of
employment because of time away from work on account of child bearing.
Following childbirth and upon signifying intent to return within a
reasonable time, such female employees are reinstated to their original
jobs or positions of like status and pay without loss of service
credit.
- The wage schedule and job classifications of the University are not related to or based on the sex of the employee.
- The University has issued policies and guidelines to ensure
an educational and work environment that is free from sexual
harassment.
- The University has taken the above steps to alleviate sex
discrimination within the institution. Those employees who believe they
have been discriminated against on the basis of sex may use the
appropriate internal grievance procedure.
