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.
