Using Area Demographics in Developing an Affirmative Action Plan 

 

31

 

This course covers the types of compensation and benefit data and their sources used in Affirmative Action Plans. Several typical Action Plan methodologies will be reviewed, each with a focus on the data elements utilized. Hiring rates, employment availability, task inventories, skill values and pay, competitive compensation levels, and other compensation elements will be reviewed. Every affirmative action plan makes certain assumptions and relies on preset mathematical models. The resultant data shown is then, itself, used in analyses to reach further conclusions, findings, and recommendations. This course is not a typical "how to write an affirmative action plan training guide" but rather a review of the basic building blocks of these plans, specifically those related to employment statistics and compensation levels. Its focus and application is for the professional who might be involved in assisting in litigation related to these plans.
