The following are suggested as the types of activities to be considered in the development of strategies for the affirmative action personnel plan:
- (1) “Vigorous” searching for qualified minority and women applicants for job openings in professional and managerial positions, often including recruitment visits to educational institutions with large minority or female enrollments.
- (2) Wide dissemination of affirmative action policy in advertisements and employment literature.
- (3) Utilization of minority media in recruitment advertisements.
- (4) Notification of job openings to minority community organizations and associations.
- (5) Listing of all employment openings with compensation of under $20,000 per year at a local office of the State Employment Service (or union hiring hall when union labor is required).
- (6) Periodic review of minority, female, Vietnam era veteran, and handcapped employees to identify underutilized and unutilized skills and knowledge as well as opportunities for reassignment.
- (7) Utilization of merit promotion and on-the-job training programs to create career ladders or otherwise qualify minority, female, Vietnam era veteran, and handicapped employees for advancement.
