A World In Which People With Disabilities Have Unlimited Employment Opportunities




Frequently Asked Questions

QUESTION: I am a person with a disability, and I would like to work for the federal government. How do I get a job with the government?

The federal government has taken a number of actions over the last few years to ensure that federal employment opportunities are available to individuals with disabilities on a non-discriminatory basis. The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) has a helpful web site, Federal Employment of People with Disabilities. The site describes the federal employment process and provides a variety of resources for job seekers with disabilities.

Regarding specific positions with the federal government, check OPM's USAJobs Web site or call the OPM Jobline at 703-724-1850.
