Severability -- Headings and captions not law -- Effective date -- 1994 sp.s. c 9: See RCW 18.79.900 through 18.79.902.      Intent -- 1987 c 9: "The legislature recognizes that persons of disability have faced unfair discrimination in employment. Equal opportunity for persons of disability often necessitate job site changes and equipment purchases. It is the intent of the legislature to remove a potential barrier to employment of persons of disability by giving state agencies, including institutions of higher education, the ability to accommodate the job site and equipment needs of persons of disability without the delay of waiting for an appropriation from the legislature."
