The final process in the utilization and work force analysis is the
formulation of goals for employment of minorities and women. The city will
use the following process in establishing goals: A goal will be established
when the percentage of total minorities and women in a department within the
city is lower than the total percentage of minorities and women available
within the surrounding labor market area.
The city will monitor and review appropriate records and reports to
ensure a policy of equal opportunity and to ensure compliance with city goals.
It is the policy of this city to provide equal employment opportunity
in all employment practices, including but not limited to recruitment, advertising,
hiring, layoff, rate of pay, training, termination, demotion, transfer, fringe
benefits and use of facilities without discrimination because of race, color,
sex, age, religion, national origin, handicapped status, Vietnam era or disabled
veteran status or on any other basis prohibited by law. This plan will be
updated and revised to reflect experience, changes in laws and regulations
and better understanding of effective approaches that will assure equal employment
opportunities for all.
