Portland Observer Workshop studies health bill * Joyce Colby, Ibinny Adair and Gretchen Kafoury were recently appointed an technical assistance coordinator* for the Oregon Bureau of Labor. Labor pushes affirmative action Ijib o r Commissioner Bill Stevenson announced the recent appointment of three technical assistance coordinators for the Bureau of labor's affirmative action program. Bonny Adair. Joyce Colby and Orel chen Kafoury will work with Pat Haggin, program director, in developing a techni cal assistance program for consumers, employers and employees. Stevenson said that the program's goal is to help Oregonians understand and comply with civil rights law. “People don't usually intend to break the law," he said. "In most instances they either don't know the law, or they are using old personnel policies that are out of step with today's legal requirements.” "Last year we processed twice as many complaints. Many of these fell under the injured worker and handicap laws passed by the 1973 legislature,” Stevenson said. Oregon is one of seven states in the nation which has stronger civil rights laws than the U.S. government. As a result, the Bureau of I«abor enforces both state and federal an ti discrim in atio n laws.
