RECOMMENDATION(S):

REVIEW and ACCEPT the Office of Equal Employment Opportunity's Annual Outreach Report, and the Departmental Outreach Plans for FY 2019 - 2020.

FISCAL IMPACT:

None

BACKGROUND:

In April 2014, the County Administrator’s Office created the Recruitment Opportunities Work Group, consisting of representatives from the Human Resources Department, the Office of County Counsel, and the Equal Employment Opportunity Office. With the goal of promoting equal employment opportunities, diversity and equity within our workforce, the Work Group successfully researched and developed robust and engaging outreach and recruitment strategies.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

Based on these strategies, the County developed outreach plans that were rolled out to department heads in January 2015. Subsequently, in February 2015, the Work Group rolled out the outreach plans to Administrative Services Officers and the Equal Employment Opportunity Coordinators to develop and implement individualized departmental plans. The attached annual report is an overview of all department Equal Employment efforts.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If unapproved, the County will not be in compliance with ensuring underrepresented groups are notified about County opportunities, and encouraged to apply. This will directly impact the County efforts to diversify its workforce.
