Promoting Diversity

• The identification of job groups within the facility (job groups consist of positions with similar skills and responsibilities);


• A workforce analysis (i.e., identifying the racial/ethnic and gender makeup of the contractor’s current and past workforce and applicants);


• A labor market analysis (information about the number of women and other protected classes available in the labor market to fill each job category); and


• An underutilization analysis (a comparison of personnel available with current the workforce).

 

To accomplish this analysis, the contractor must study the applicant flow, recruitment procedures, selection and placement procedures, promotions and transfers, seniority systems, terminations, employee benefits, and working conditions.
