These regulations require federal contractors to determine whether recruitment and selection procedures adversely impact women and minorities. In order to analyze our recruitment and selection practices, effective March 1 all hiring authorities are expected to complete either an Applicant Referral List form or Summary of Eligible Applicants form and submit the form to Human Resources with the hiring paperwork. The hiring authority will only need to complete the requested information and return the form with the hiring paperwork. The Summary of Eligible Applicants form is to be completed by those departments who manage their own application collection and screening process. This form was designed to capture selection data for multiple applicants on a single form and is similar in format and content to the Applicant Referral List.
Detailed instructions are available on-line.
Once the requisite form and hiring paperwork are returned to Human Resources, this information will be forwarded to the Affirmative Action Office who will use it to conduct quarterly analyses beginning in April. If the analyses suggests that hiring procedures adversely impact women or minorities, hiring authorities will be asked to provide additional information about the screening and selection process used for a particular hire in a standardized format. If the post-analysis collection of data proves to be an inefficient manner of fulfilling the University's federal reporting requirements for March 1999, a more effective method will be developed. We recognize that the implementation of these record keeping standards may require some changes in the way departments keep records. We appreciate your assistance in the implementation of these record keeping practices.
