This bill allows individuals with disabilities to request an exemption from civil service examinations required for employment in certain positions. The Civil Service Commission is tasked with granting these exemptions if it determines that the individual can perform the job duties satisfactorily despite their disability. Additionally, the bill outlines that the appointing authority must obtain proof of the individual's disability before making an appointment, which can include official certification from a medical professional or documentation of participation in specific programs related to disability.

Furthermore, the bill emphasizes the confidentiality of records related to an individual's disability, stating that such records will not be subject to public disclosure except as necessary for the administration of the act or for statistical purposes. The Civil Service Commission and the Division of Equal Employment Opportunity and Affirmative Action are also required to develop rules and regulations to ensure the effective implementation of this act.
