Policy Statement:
It is the continuing policy of Collier County Board of County Commissioners to ensure that all Human
Resources policies and practices are administered without regard to race, color, religion, sex, age, national
origin, physical or mental handicap, or marital status. [Ref. Collier County Personnel Ordinance No. 2001-
50.] All Human Resources practices, including compensation, benefits, discipline, safety, as well as social
and recreational activities are administered and conducted in compliance with state and federal law. All
recruitment, selection, placement, promotion, transfer, training, and layoff decisions are based solely on the
candidates' /employees' job- related qualifications and abilities. Outreach programs may be utilized to recruit,
hire and ensure advancement of qualified minority group members, women, disabled individuals and
veterans.
Collier County Government takes steps as necessary to ensure that the work environment is free of unlawful
discrimination or harassment. On an annual basis, the County reviews its Human Resources procedures and
strives to ensure that its supervisors and managers adhere to its commitment to Equal Employment
Opportunity principles.
Collier County Government encourages employees who have EEO- related questions, comments or
complaints to discuss them with their supervisor, department director, administrator, or a representative from
the Human Resources department. Employees are also encouraged to utilize the Commitment to Fair
Treatment Procedure. Additionally, Collier County Government refers applicants and employees to the
Florida Commission on Human Relations (FCHR), established in 1969 with the intent of protection against
unlawful discrimination. The FCHR assists in claims of wrongdoing, including discrimination, and provides
a means for effectively resolving problems should they arise.

NARRATIVE UNDERUTILIZATION ANALYSIS
A comparison of the Collier County workforce to the community labor statistics for Collier County, Florida,
based on 2000 U.S. Census data — which may or may not reflect the current community workforce —
indicates underutilization of Black or African American females and, to a greater extent, Hispanic or Latino
males in at least one job category. In the Officials /Executive category, the results reflect underutilization of
Hispanic or Latino males. In the Skilled Craft category, the movement reflects underutilization of Hispanic
or Latino males and in Technicians category, it appears that there is an underutilization of Black or African
American females.
Demographic statistics for Collier County show very small populations of Asian, Pacific Islander, American
Indian /Alaskan Native individuals, or those who have reported that their background consists of two or more
races. Therefore, the underutilization analysis focused on the number of Black or African American, White
and Hispanic or Latino individuals in the workforce. For purposes of this analysis, underutilization of less
than one percent (1 %) in all job categories was considered negligible.
As a result of the underutilization analysis, the Collier County Equal Employment Opportunity Plan (EEOP)
will address the more significant areas of underutilization; however, Collier County welcomes the
opportunity to increase the representation of all underutilized groups and will continue to explore ways of
communicating job openings to all race and ethnic groups. After reviewing the utilization analysis, the
following areas of concern were identified:
Officials /Executive — Hispanic or Latino males are underutilized by 2.33 %.
Skilled Craft— Hispanic or Latino males are underutilized by 16.91%.
Technicians — Black or African American females are underutilized by 1.21 %

Y Because it appears that Black or African American females are underutilized in one job category,
when recruiting both internally and externally, Collier County will try to attract qualified applicants
who fall in that group.
➢ With undermilization indicated for Hispanic or Latino males in both Officials /Executives and Skilled
Craft jobs, Collier County will review all job requirements and hiring procedures in this area to
assure that no unnecessary barriers exist that would deny job opportunities to qualified individuals in
this group. Additionally, Collier County will review recruitment efforts to determine methods for
attracting this underrepresented group, and will implement appropriate action as necessary to
improve or enhance hiring practices.
STEPS TO ACHIEVE OBJECTIVES
❑ Collier County will continue to monitor data, as it becomes available, to ensure that
underrepresented groups receive equal opportunity to secure employment with the County.
Specifically, new /updated data from the U.S. Census Bureau will be analyzed as it becomes
available. Based on the results of that analysis, steps will be taken to achieve better utilization of any
underrepresented groups.
❑ Collier County will seek ways of reaching underutilized groups through advertisements of open
positions, and, when economically feasible to do so, the County will offer job fairs that are
convenient for everyone from Collier and surrounding counties to attend. Collier County continues
to offer an excellent benefit package, which is marketed on our website and in job advertisements.
In partnership with other agencies in the area, we will continue to provide outreach to the
surrounding community and attract motivated, qualified applicants.
❑ Collier County will continue to expand its networks with local professional women's and minority
associations. The relationships with Black and Hispanic Advisory Boards will also be utilized to
encourage input when vacancies occur.
❑ Collier County will continue the practice of posting open internal and external positions on the
County website, as well as posting vacancies in the Human Resources office for positions available
to the public.
❑ Collier County will continue the practice of advertising applicable job vacancies in national, state
and local minority publications.
❑ Collier County will monitor the job applicant pool to ensure that qualified candidates from
underutilized groups are being reached and are not disproportionately rejected for employment.
❑ Collier County will continue to offer a diversity training course to emphasize the benefits of learning
how to understand, respect and value the differences among people.
