<br />Policy and Compliance Officer Annette Moore introduced Employment Manager Allison <br />Newcomer. <br />Annette Moore said that there were some corrections after the plan was submitted. <br />These are on the gold sheet. She gave some background as stated in the agenda abstract. <br />The staff is asking the Board to adopt this revised program, and the language has been <br />changed to comply with the requirements of the amended recommendations of Executive Order <br />11246. <br />She said that the implementation requires that the program designate a Chief Executive <br />Officer. This program designates the County Manager as the CEO of the program. Section 8 <br />includes the affirmative action plan for qualified individuals with disabilities and veterans. <br />She made reference to Appendix A, which is the Work First Analysis by department. <br />Appendix K identifies areas of underutilization of women and minorities. <br />Employment Manager Allison Newcomer explained Appendix G, Comparison of Orange <br />County Workforce with Recruitment Area Availability by Category. The recruitment area used is <br />Orange, Durham, Alamance, and Wake Counties. In 2006, 79% of Orange County applicants <br />came from these four counties. As of December 31, 2006, the Orange County workforce <br />consisted of 801 permanent employees. Of these, 57% were women, and 32°~ were minorities. <br />Based on the 2000 U. S. Census data, the four-county recruitment area totaled 608,344. Of <br />these, 47% were women, and 31 % were minorities. Orange County's total utilization of women <br />and minorities exceeds the recruitment area availability. As they go forward, they will continue <br />to look at additional recruitment tools that are directed toward the targeted population, including <br />publications, job fairs, and other community events. They will also build on the County's training <br />calendar to foster cultural awareness and increase disability awareness among all County <br />employees. <br />Annette Moore said that staff is asking the Board of County Commissioners to approve <br />the revised Affirmative Action Program, authorize the Manager to update the Affirmative Action <br />Program Report as necessary, receive the January 2007 Affirmative Action Program, and <br />authorize the Chair to sign the letter transmitting the document. <br />Commissioner Gordon asked haw long it has been since the last revisions and Annette <br />Moore said 1999. Commissioner Gordon would like to see something more frequently and a <br />document that is shorter. She painted out pages 2-5 and the program report, section D through <br />the placement goals. She would like to see a summary once a year. <br />Annette Moore said that this program requires them to review every two years. It could <br />be updated informally every year. <br />Laura Blackmon said that she would be working with departments on recruitment, and <br />as positions become available, the Personnel Department will be working with applicants and <br />the departments. She said there it is not a quota to hire specific types of people but it is more of <br />a heightened awareness. <br />Commissioner Jacobs made reference to Appendix J and said that it looks as if Orange <br />County is in the negative in all of these. He asked if this would be more of a focus in the <br />recruitment and Allison Newcomer said yes. <br />Commissioner Jacobs asked where handicapped people Shaw up and Annette Moore <br />said that if the Board approves this plan, then the disabled can self-identify and this will show up <br />for the County overall. This is a way for the County to track applicants. <br />Commissioner Jacobs said that this is an improvement and he thanked those involved. <br />Chair Carey thanked them for this report and said that he would like to see the mid-term <br />report also. He said that some departments are doing better than others. He said that he is <br />mare interested in how to address this internally. <br />Laura Blackmon said that a lot of this has to do with the applications they receive. Same <br />areas are not areas in which women or minorities tend to apply. After the tracking is developed, <br />staff will be looking at some ways to recruit individuals to become interested in these areas. <br />
