MEMORANDUM TO: Chairman Jackson FROM:
William D. Travers M'W Executive Director for Operations
SUBJECT:
FY98 PROGRAM PLAN UPDATE AND ACCOMPLISHMENT REPORT ON THE AFFIRMATIVE ACTION PROGRAM PLAN FOR HIRING, PLACEMENT, AND ADVANCEMENT OF INDIVIDUALS WITH HANDICAPS The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) requires agencies to submit an annual Program Plan Update and Accomplishment Report on their Affirmative Action Plan for Hiring, Placement, and Advancement of Individuals with Handicaps. Section 501 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended requires the Federal Government to provide equal employment opportunity for individuals with handicaps who are Federal employees or applicants for Federal employment. The objective of this Act is for the Federal Government to become a model employer of persons with disabilities. It also ensures that qualified individuals with handicaps and Federal employees who become disabled after appointment, have a full measure of opportunities to be hired, placed, and advanced in a broad range of grade levels and occupational series commensurate with their qualifications. These regulations also state that Agency policies should not unnecessarily exclude or limit persons with disabilities because of job structure or design; or because of architectural, transportation, communication, procedural or attitudinal barriers.
Attached for your approval and signature is a transmittal letter to EEOC; attached thereto is the l
FY98 Program Plan Update and Accomplishment Report on the Affirmative Action Program Plan for Hiring, Placement, and Advancement of Individuals with Handicaps. As indicated in the report, of a total work force of 2,978 employees,194 identified themselves as having a l
handicap. Of this 194,28 are reported as having one of the following targeted disabilities:
deafness, blindness, missing extremities, partial paralysis, complete paralysis, convulsive disorders, mental retardation, mental illness, and distortion of limbs and/or spine. The accuracy l
of these numbers is totally dependent upon the number of employees who chose to complete the self-identification of handicap form provided to them upon entering the NRC and when the 9901110062 981230 PDR COMMS NRCC CORRESPONDENCE PDR
