EEC POLICY STATEMENT
..............................................=====================
i i
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Cosuission (NRC) is fully comitted to equal employment opportunity and the implementation of a strong affirmative employment program without regard to race, sex, religion, color, national origin, age, or handicap.
It is the policy of the NRC to provide equal opportunity in employment for all persons in its work force or being recruited for its work lj force and to prohibit discrimination in all aspects of its personnel policies, program practices and operations < and in all j
its working conditions and relationships with employees and i
applicants for employment.
I strongly promote the full j
realtration of equal opportunity in employment through continuing j
programs of affirmative employment at every management level within the agency. The NRC subscribes to and itplements the requirements of Title VII Of the Civil Rights Act of l
1964, as amended; Executive Order 11478, as amended; Age
}
Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967; the Equal Pay Act of 1962, as amended; and the Vocational Rehabilitation Act of 1973 j
as amended.
t i
The multi-year Affirmative Employment Plan will assist the agency i
in fulfilling its mission by having all of its employees j
contribute to our objectives. We will continue to develop a strong chain of comunication and coordination among all levels of i
management in order to reach and. achieve the objectives of our l
AEP.
To this end, all managers and supervisors are expected to take an active, ongoing part in promoting and implementing the Plan and to dedicate themselves to the policy of meeting their EE0 responsibilities in a manner that yields results.
If all l
levels of supervision undertake the responsibility of affirmative i
employment with the same leadership and real as other organizational responsib?lities, th result will be a continuing I
i system of equal opportunity as required by law.
I I expect full support from each manager and supervisor in meeting the objectives of this program.
Periodic evaluations will be made l

1 AFFIRMAT7VE EMPI4YMENT PROGRAM FOR MINORITIES AND WOMEN P.RQGRAM ANALYSIS III.
DISCRIMINATION COMPLAINTS During our analysis of discrimination complaints activities, we examined counseling efforts completed and complaints filed in Fiscal Years 1986 and 1987.
l We note that 89 percent of counseling efforts resulted in resolutions in FY 1986 and 82 percent in FY 1987.
This high resolution rate reflects the efforts of NRC's 26 EE0 Counselors at Headquarters and Regiona 1ffices.
New EE0 Counselors receive l
the required training sponso ed by OPM. After a year of service.
the Counselors may take OPM's advanced counselor training l
courses.
NkC sponsors yearly training seminars attended by all agency EE0 Counselors. The seminars, conducted by OSDBU/CR personnel in conjunction with personnel from OPM, EEOC, and the NRC Chapter of l
Blacks in Government (BIG), provide the EE0 counselors with l
additional training and updates in changes to guidelines and procedures, thus keeping a well trained and infomed EE0 Counselors group that contribute to the high resolution rate of complaints.
NRC had 15 active complaints at the end of FY 19C6 and 20 at the end of FY 1987.
A majority of the complaints ware based on race (Black) ar.d age.
The issues cost frequently raised were promotions and teminations.
There were no findings of dtacrimination in any of the final agency decisions.
The investigstion of EE0 complaints at NRC is conducted by outside contractors.
There is a Senior Equal Employment Opportunity Specialist assigned full time to coordinate the agency's discrimiration complaints program.
He is available to provide guidance to EE0 Counselors and investigators on a-continuous basis.

IV. RECRUITMENT AND HIRING More than half of NRC employees are engineers and scientists, in scaW.e-supply occupations, with limited availability of women and mincrities. Over 70% of NRC employees are college-educated, including 9% with Doctorates and 28% with Master's and Professional degrees. The need for such a specialized, educated, and experienced staff poses challenges in recruitment.
NRC recruitment strategies include:
Contracting with Oak Ridge Associated Universities (0RAU) to collect current annual information on enrollment and degrees granted in nuclear engineering and health physics, specialized disciplines required by NRC. The information provided includes enrollment of women and minority students with U.S. citizenship in every U.S. university with such degree programs. NRC uses such data to target campus visits to institutions with protected group trembers studying these disciplines.
Aa active college recruitment program focusing on protected For instance, during FY-84 through FY-87, NRC groups.
visited 15 predominantly minority institutions, 9 other institutions with high minority enrollment, as well as predominantly white institutions. During this period, almost one-third of the 100 entry-levels hired were women and minorities.
Attendance at job fairs, plant closings and professional association meetings for recruitment purposes.
Advertising in publications targeted at minority populations.
A Cooperative Education Program, sumer technical a6d sunner faculty hires to support the agency EE0 efforts.
A part-time employment program. Employees (mostlywomen) serve in part-time positions ranging from secretary to l
attorney.

V. EMPLOYEE DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMS NRC is comitted to a new developmental activity, increasing the use of rotational assignments in the interest of the agency and the employee.
Details and reassignments will provide opportunities for employees to broaden their knowledge and experience and to demonstrate their skills and abilities in new arenas.
NRC's active training program includes supervisory and management development courses, pre-supervi 3ry orientation program, supervising human resources and a management workshop, as well as a highly acclaimed administrative skills enhancement program.
EE0 is an important consideration in all training.
NRC participates in the Office of Personnel Management's sponsored training programs, such as the Women's Executive Leadership Prcgram and the Executive Potential Program. Protected group members have been selected for these programs and will continue to be nominated for such programs.
Emphasis has been placed on ensuring that women and minorities participate in executive training, such as the Executive Seminar, the Federal Executive Institute, and Brookings Institute.
NRC's SES Candidate Program allows applications from GG-14 employees to increase the pool of qualified women and minorities.
Protected group members have been selected for this prograe.
NRC has an Upward Mobility Program to provide developmental opportunities to lower-graded employees which qualifies participants for administrative and technical positions.
The agency strongly encourages all employees to prepare Individual Development Plans to identify individual career goals and development needs.
hRC requires EE0 training for new supervisors and managers and for all EE0 counselors.

a AFFIRMATIVE EMPI4YMENT PROGRAM FOR MINORITIES AND WOMEN PROGRAM ANALYSIS VI. PROMOTIONS NRC ne'tes an effort to assure the validity of job requirements by reviewing positions and rating criteria prior to recruitment.
In order to ensure that appropriate promotion opportunities are available to employees at all grade levels and occupational areas, regardless of minority status and sex, the acency makes non-competitive career ladder promotions available to all employees.
The criteria for such promotions to the journeyman level,are performance, conduct, and availability of sufficient work and funds.
Competitive promotions are based on merit selection, unrelated to minority status and sex.

VII. SEPARATIONS On a voluntary and anonymous basis, NRC collects "Exit Interview Foms" from separating employees. Analysis of these foms over the past two fiscal "EEO-related reason"years indicates no employee has ever checked as a reason for leaving.
NRC has recently produced information on attrition rates comparing turnover rates over the last five fiscal years for women, minorities and white males. Aside from higher attrition for clerical employees (mostly women), no other conclusions could be drawn since rates varied by office, year and occupation, without obvious pattern.
Since its inception in 1975, this agency has had only one RIF in one program office and anticipates no further RIFs in the future.
As an excepted service agency, NRC is not subject to Office of Personnel Management regulations on RIF, which provide for bumping and retreat. For this reason, in the unlikely event of a RIF, NRC believes it could avoid much of the disparate effect on women and minorities which apparently occurs in competitive service agencies with bumping and retreat rights.
