1. Purpose. To state OSHA's policy and assign responsibility for equality of employment opportunity.
2. Policy. OSHA's equal employment opportunity program is based on an affirmative plan of action. Affirmative action requires more than the elimination of discrimination based on race, sex, national origin, religion, or age. It requires a positive attack on those problem areas, conditions, and factors which are barriers to the realization of each employee's full potential. Equality of opportunity in recruitment, job assignments, promotions, working conditions, and training is the basis of the Federal Merit System and the goal of our EEO policy.
Program success demands that all employees know both their responsibility to support this effort and their right to benefit from equal employment opportunity. While EEO is the concern of all individuals, specific responsibilities are assigned to selected positions to insure that the objectives of the affirmative action plan will be achieved.
a. OMS. The prime responsibility for administering the equal opportunity program, including the Federal Women's Program (FWP), is functionally assigned to the Division of Employee Development, Office of Management Services.
