ADA Grievance Procedure

The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) protects individuals from discrimination on the basis of disability in the services, activities, programs, benefits, and/or facilities of Massport.

It may be used by anyone who wishes to file a complaint alleging discrimination on the basis of disability in the provision of services, activities, programs, benefits, or facilities of Massport, its tenants, or service providers. Massport’s HR Policies and Procedures Manual governs employment-related complaints of disability discrimination.
