Background: Overview Every two years the County reviews and updates its Affirmative Action Plan. In August 1997 the Board of Commissioners adopted the Orange County Affirmative Action plan covering the period .November 1, 1996 through October 31, 1998. That Affirmative Action Plan has been updated. The updated plan covers the period November 1, 1998 through October 31, 2000.. The County's affirmative action program. reafFirms the County's`commitment to equal opportunity in employment. The Plan provides a written set of result-oriented procedures designed to promote equal employment opportunity. The emphasis of the plan is to continue to apply good faith efforts to seek out, employ, train and promote minorities and women within and into the County's work force:., Plan Description In accordance with federal guidelines; the Affirmative Action Plan includes a Narrative Statement and Utiiization Analysis. Among other things, the narrative portion of the updated plan sets out the County's equal employment opportunity policy and commitment; assigns specific responsibilities 2 for equal employment opportunity; reviews current affirmative action programs; and describes the process for communicating the County's Equal Employment Opportunity program and Affirmative Action Plan both internally and externally. The utilization analysis portion includes a review of fihe County's utilization of women and minorities in its workforce in relation to the availability of women and minorities in the recruitment area labor force (not population generally) -overall and by the eight federal Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) occupational categories (Attachment). The recruitment area labor force is based on the 1990 Census data for the four-county recruitment area of Orange, Alamance, Durham and Wake Counties. It reflects people who are already employed or available for employment. Orange County Work Force The utilization analysis of the Orange County work force continues to indicate positive results. The County's overall utilization of women and minorities is greater than the availability in the recruitment area labor force (Attachment). Specifically: . • 28.4 percent of .permanent Orange County employees are minorities as compared to 24.8 percent availability in'the recruitment area labor force and • 58.6 percent of permanent Orange County employees are women as compared to 48.3 percent, availability in the recruitment area labor force. The analysis by EEO category indicates the County has a particularly strong minority and female representation in the categories of Officials and Administrators, Professionals and Technicians. The analysis by EEO category indicates underutilization of minorities in relation to the availability in the recruitment area labor force in the categories of Protective Services and Paraprofessionals and underutilization of women in the categories of Protective Services, Skilled Craft and Service/Maintenance. In continuing to work towards the ideal of achieving representation of minorities and women in the workplace at least proportional to the recruitment area labor force, the County will seek to maintain current levels of representation where no underutilization. currently exists and has established .goals and. timetables for each EEO category in which underutilization is indicated by the analysis. In recognition of the significant, rapid growth in the area Hispanic-Latino population and the need to promote representation in the Orange County work force, the County has initiated affirmative recruitment efforts targeted to the Hispanic-Latino community and will continue to build on these efforts as opportunities are identified. These efforts also support the multi-lingual recruitment and hiring policy adopted. by the Board of Commissioners at the November 3, 1999 meeting. Affirmative efforts include: • Participation in the La Fiesta Del Pueblo job fair to promote awareness of Orange 3 County as an area employer and, attendance at other events, as opportunities are identified. • Developing employment materials in Spanish • Expansion of our standard external advertisers to include publications targeting the Hispanic-Latino community. • Expanding the community resources mailing lists to whom notices of job opening are sent to include organizations and community groups that consist of, or serve, individuals from the Hispanic-Latino community. .• Developing and implementing a cultural awareness training program for County employees during the current fiscal year. Upon approval of the updated Affirmative Action Plan,.the County will re-communicate the plan both internally and externally, including employees, supervisors and external recruitment sources. Financial Impact: Additional employment advertising costs will be incurred for additional advertising in publications targeting the Hispanic-Latino community. During fiscal year 1999-00 such advertising will be completed to the extent funds are available in the Personnel advertising budget or the recruiting department can provide supplemental funding. In developing the proposed 2000-01 advertising budget, staff will evaluate the impact of such advertising and determine whether to propose additional advertising funds. Recommendation: The Manager recommends the Board accept the Orange County Affirmative Action Plan and authorize the Board Chair to sign the memorandum to recipients of the Plan.

Introduction Orange County is committed to the policy of equal employment opportunity and to a program of affirmative action to fulfill that policy. The following sections describe the policy and the plan for its implementation. A. Plan Purpose This affirmative action plan results from the County's internal review of its work force and personnel practices. It is an effort to provide a written set ofresult-oriented procedures ,designed to promote equal employment opportunity within Orange County government. The major emphasis of the affirmative action plan is to continue to apply good faith efforts to seek out, employ, train and promote minorities and women within and into the County's work force. An effective affirmative action program not only benefits those who could have been denied equal employment opportunity but also benefits the County by making available the useful talents, resources and skills of minorities and women which may have been underutilized. B. Plan Period The plan covers the period from November 1, 1998 through October 31, 2000. C. Pian Coverage The plan covers all permanent full-time and permanent part-time employees and positions of Orange County. It does not cover elected officials. The plan addresses affirmative action as to minorities and women. -1- D. Plan Methodology -~' 'The plan analyzes Orange County's utilization of minorities and women in its work force as of November 1, 1998. The plan then compares the County's utilization of minorities and women in its work force to the availability of minorities and women in the recruitment area labor force based on 1990 census data. The comparison of Orange County's utilization of minorities and women in the work force in relation to the availability of minorities and women in the recruitment area labor force was used to identify areas of underutilization. Turnover and recruitment experience then was considered in developing tentative affirmative action placement goals. Affected Orange County department heads reviewed these tentative goals and gave feedback on projected openings. This feedback is reflected in the final affirmative action placement goals and timetables. II. Policy Statements A. Equal Employment Opportunity Policyl The policy of Orange County is to foster, maintain and promote equal employment opportunity.

The text of all Orange County documents and publications uses gender neutral language. VIII. Analysis of the Orange County Work Force and the Utilization of Minorities and Women A. General In setting goals and timetables as part of an Affirmative Action Plan, information is compiled to determine the status of minorities and women within the Orange County local government work force. This information then is compared to the availability of women and minorities within the recruitment area labor force. This process is called a "utilization analysis." Orange County completes a utilization analysis annually to identify areas within the work force where minorities and women are underutilized in relation to their availability in the recruitment area labor force. In those instances where minorities and females are underutilized, annual affirmative action placement goals are established. -15- The utilization analysis. in this plan consists of three elements: A work force analysis of the County's permanent employees as of November 1, 1998, --~' An availability analysis for the recruitment area labor force based on the .1990 U.S. Census data Findings; that is, identification of areas of underutilization of minorities and women in the Orange County work force in relation to the recruitment area labor force. B. Orange County .Work Force Analysis The work force analysis reviews the County's permanent employment both overall and by the eight federal Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) occupational categories. These categories are Officials and Administrators; Professionals; Technicians; Protective Service Workers; Paraprofessionals; Office and Clerical; Skilled Craft Workers; and Service and Maintenance. Appendix A shows the eight EEO categories and the Orange County classes included in each category. Appendix B shows the Orange .County work force data by. EEO category. As of November 1, 1998, the Orange County work force consisted of 609 permanent employees. Of these, 357 (58.6 percent) were women and 173 (28.4 percent) were minorities. C. Recruitment Area Availability Analysis To conduct the analysis of the availability of minorities and women in the labor force, the County first identified the appropriate recruitment area to use in this analysis. The recruitment area used is the four-county area made up of Orange, Durham, Alamance and Wake Counties. Based on 1998 applicant flow information, this recruitment area accounts for 77.4 percent of applicants for Orange County employment. Based on the 1990 U. S. Census data, the labor force for this four county recruitment area totaled 460,846. Of this total, 222,535 (48.3 percent) were women and 114,324 (24.8 percent) were minorities. Appendix C shows the recruitment area labor force data by EEO category. -16- D. Findings 1. Overall -' Chart 1 compares the Orange County work force to the recruitment area labor force by race and sex as of November 1, 1998. This indicates: - Orange County's total utilization of minorities in the work force (28.4 percent) exceeds the availability of minorities in the recruitment area labor force (24.8 percent). - Orange County's total utilization of women in the work force (58.6 percent) exceeds the availability of women in the recruitment area labor force (48.3 percent). 2. By EEO Category Charts 2 and 3 compare the Orange County work force to the recruitment area labor force for minorities and women for each EEO category as of November 1, 1996. Appendix D provides a comparison of recruitment area availability and the Orange County work force by race and sex. Appendix E provides detailed comparison data for each EEO category. As to Minorities This analysis indicates the County's utilization of minorities exceeds the recruitment area availability in the following categories: - Officials and Administrators - Professionals - Technicians - Office and Clerical - Skilled Craft - Service and Maintenance -17- The analysis indicates the underutilization of minorities in relation to the availability data in the following categories: ~ - Protective services J - Paraprofessionals. As to Women The analysis indicates the County's utilization of women exceeds the recruitment area availability in the following categories: - Officials and Administrators - Professionals - Technicians - Paraprofessionals - Office and Clerical The analysis indicates the utilization of women is less than that indicated by the availability data in the following categories: - Protective Services - Skilled Craft - Service and Maintenance 3> Summary The utilization analysis shows the County has strong minority and female representation in its work force. Areas of particular strength include the following categories: - Officials and Administrators - Professionals -18- The analysis indicates the need to focus affirmative action efforts and goal setting in the areas of: _ _,' - Protective services - Paraprofessionals - Skilled crafts - Service and Maintenance IX. Placement Goals and Timetables Orange County is committed to the ideal of achieving representation of minorities and women in the workplace at least proportional to the recruitment area labor force. To this end, the County: Seeks to maintain current levels of representation of minorities and women in EEO categories where no underutilization currently exists and - Establishes goals and timetables for each EEO category in which underutilization of minorities and/or women is indicated by the utilization analysis. Using the Orange County work force-and recruitment area labor force data, Personnel calculated projected goals to provide utilization of minorities and women equivalent to the indicated recruitment area labor force availability. These goals were then reviewed with involved departments heads to assess anticipated hiring opportunities based on past termination experience. Chart 4 shows the final projected goals and timetables for the four EEO categories in which underutilization was identified. X. Equal Opportunity Policy and Affirmative Action Program Goals In addition to the Placement Goals and Timetables described in Section IX and the on- going AfJ:~rmative Action Programs described in Section V, the following specific program goals are planned for the covered Affirmative Action Plan period. Upon approval of the updated Affirmative Action Plan by the Board of County Commissioners, communication of the updated plan both internally and externally, including employees, supervisors and recruitment sources. 2. Review of current external recruitment sources for effectiveness and expansion of external recruitment source's to include additional agencies and/or organizations geared toward the advancement of minorities and women. -19- 3. Expansion of external recruitment sources to include agencies and organizations geared toward the Latino/Hispanic community. 4. Expansion of external advertisement resources to include publications targeting the Latino/Hispanic community. 5. Developing and implementing a cultural diversity training program for County employees. 6. Participating in community events such as job fairs directed at minorities and women. -20- Charts Orange County Affirmative Action Plan -21 - Chart 3a Q 1.~ ~rl ® `~ Q~ ~ ~ •~ ~oo~ ~. ~~ o M~~ ~-~ 't~~x~ ~t~¢t. ~iNt. r d1. .~ 5'~ {~ '~~ ~ , .F ""?~'t'~ 4 ~~~- ~ ~ r~~~~a ~~;~ a d' O CO \° 0 G71 p tr } v' j }", A rti +,+, y tT - J~,`tY +'r - 75.x 717 x -e r 1 d11.1 d ~~^7"~`9ty ? +r 1~4 ~`~ }t.i. i s 5 n,~in d 4 ° x ~ a; 'i'q'~t`i ~h~'` d~Sl}a'~'>w.::Y,~y~t~4 4~x~"`'Y'c; n~~~~f ~~,+~ intr 1~~ '~..~tl~a ~~at ~~a ,y~'1'~~' ~ja ~ur r a ~ ~~3 t ~ ; Y'+rcrt'~~~" _r x unT-~~ ndA"5*~.' `l U~t r''~, i ~, t t 3r_-~.'~~ r~ ~ ,~~r ~~3 ~ ~~; f~ Y"~ ~L3 ita ~.,"'~s->7J,c s~~'i~'y~s~ry Cif 3~~.. r f~i~ t.+ n r `}'~ a ~.
