Afirmative Action

This last week I have been working on an Affirmative Action Plan and it has sucked!
Now don't get me wrong. I am a believer in Affirmative Action. However, I am not such a big fan of putting them together. There is so many steps to take. I have had to print off a million reports to put in the hard copy of the plan. This is just in case any employees or god forbid the EEOC wants to see it. Then I have had to write narratives. I had do do a business summary and a narrative with an action plan on how we are going to try to "fix" where we are under utilizing women or minorities and a narrative explaining our community involvement and how that has encouraged women and minorities to apply. I have not even began working on the veterans section!
However, I cannot complain too much. I knew that I would have certain things like this to deal with on my job. Hopefully it is easier to put together next year!

Wow. Sounds like a lot of work. I think with something like that I would just give up! Of course once you do it, it will definitely be easier next time!

Don't you work for a lumber company? I think that might possibly be a huge glaring reason why they are under-utilizing women.
Anyways, good luck with all your affirmative action stuff

Hmmm. . . maybe you could outsource it??? How is the new place?
