EEOC and OPM Announce Resources for Disability Self-Identification Efforts
The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) announced a joint memorandum with the U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM) to all federal Chief Human Capital Officers.

The revisions make it easier for employees with disabilities to self-identify during on-boarding or when their disability status changes during their career. The revisions also simplify the terminology within the form, better define the medical conditions listed, and allow employees to indicate they have a disability without having to specify their medical diagnosis.
