The Plan reflects the policy of the DCI and is the Agency's key EEO document for Agency management and personnel as well as for the Civil Service Commission. The most important aspect of the Plan is continuous monitoring and assessing of efforts called for in the Plan. It is the responsibility of management and of the Office of EEO to monitor its progress and ?to be prepared for periodic evaluation by the DCI and by the Civil Service Commission. To assess the status of EEO in the Central Intelligence Agency, the Office of EEO invited all employees to contribute to the Plan. The DCI's EEO Advisory Panel, Federal Women's Program Board, Directorate Women's Working Groups and Directorate Management Advisory Groups provided their concerns to the 013E0 and the Directorate EEO Officers. The EEO Office then defined problems and objectives and asked for comments from the Directorates and special interest groups. After several iterations, a general package of problem statements and objectives developed. Input from ?Directorates and Program Coordinators was not limited to these statements and additional comments are included. Approved For Release 2004/03/15 : CIA-RDP80M00165A001100120010-9 C-1 Approved For Release 2004/03/15 : CIA-RDP80M00165M101100120010-9 In introducing the assessmeint section of this Plan it is appropriate to point out those activities not specifically committed to in last year's Plan which were an attempt at furthering affirmative action and equitable human resource management principles. A first significant step was the appointment of the Director of Equal Employment Opportunity to the Agency's Executive Advisory Group by the Director of Central Intelligence to emphasize his personal management commitment of ensuring that equal opportunity 'principles are an integral part of Agency decisionmaking. In addition, the Director of EEO is to meet regularly with the DCI to keep him informed of the status of equal opportunity. The Director of EEO has also been keenly aware of the need for educating personnel at the entrance-on-duty level through the supervisory level to the most senior levels in the Agency. An on-going- program for the staff of the EEO Office is to speak to as many Agency training courses as possible to get the message of what EEO is trying to accomplish across, to as many employees as possible. In a small classroom environment there is the greatest potential for a real dialogue to develop. Participants are encouraged to ask qu-stions, pick up EEO-related information, and clear up any misconceptions or fears about the Program. It is an activity which supplements the Management for Equality of Opportunity Course and gives wide exposure to the EEO program. C-2 Approved For Release 2004/03/15 : CIA-RDP80M00165A001100120010-9 Approved For Re/Tease 2004/03/15: CIA-RDP80M0010Z01100120010-9 In addition to speaking at training courses, the Office of EEO prepared two programs this year: one to commemorate Black History Month and one to celebrate Hispanic Week. Both programs included an auditorium guest speaker format and an exhibit hall display which included borrowed exhibits from the Anacostia Neighborhood Museum and the National Park Service, contributions from Agency employees, and displays developed and designed by Agency components and the Office of EEO. Although it was hoped that these programs would attract a large number of interested (or even curious) employees, attendance was disappointing. Thus, the value of such activities as an education tool for employees is to be reassessed. A very tangible accomplishment was in the hiring of minorities this year. The number of Agency black professional and technical new employees is increasing at a better rate than last year. However, lateral entry (GS-12 and above) is still a small percentage of new hires and is a continuing area of concern. This is addressed in the Recruitment Section. The eight areas of* concern, as defined by the Civil Service Commission, follow.

Supervisors, managers and workers generally held misconceptions as to the purpose, objectives, legality and morality of affirmative action planning. The initial office personnel complement and structure was established based on a generally inadequate knowledge of the scope of office responsibilities and workload. A new structure has been proposed based on the increasing activity and program load, the increasing EEO complaint caseload of the Agency, and the demands resulting from a clearer understanding of the tasks and responsibilities of the OEEO. At the directorate level, two directorates appointed full-time EEO Officers this year to develop and monitor directorate programs and EEO policies. In one of these directorates, an EEO staff of four people was established. Part-time EEO officers have been selected for each office in the Agency. Howeve , the Agency is a long way from realizing its EEO goals of representative population, individual development and full utilization of all employees.

This impacts adversely on the Office of EEO since resources are not available to meet this increased workload satisfactorily. Currently, there is an adequate network of EEO counselors from all of the directorates at each installation of the Agency who have been trained and certified by the Civil Service Commission and in special cases, trained internally. Investigators are drawn from the Office of EEO and Directorates. Since there are no full-time investigators, those appointed to a case must balance their normal office duties with investigating. As a result, in no case has an investigation been completed in the 45-day recommended time limit. In addition, individual attention given to counselors and investigators during the performance of their duty is inadequate, prompting concern that some are not carrying out their responsibilities in an aggressive and effective manner. More support, guidance and monitoring of counselors and investigators is needed. The class action %.,3mplaint regulations for the Agency have not yet been written. These must be made available to employees as soon as possible. The EEO regulations in general need to be updated and disseminated to all employees.

Finally, counselors, EEO officers and managers need to be better informed of the types of complaints which are surfacing. Increased awareness could facilitate the handling of similar cases and for the manager, such information could flag warning signals within his or her own office. It is an education process that must be developed.

In addition to the recruitment efforts of the Office of Personnel for potential employees just entering the job market, there is a need for greater hiring efforts directed at the lateral levels including those with management experience. In order to accomplish this, participation at conventions and conferences by the Office of EEO, Office of Personnel and other involved employees will continue with emphasis on recruitment. Contacts with minority and female associations, other government agencies, and employee referrals are also necessary. This year the Agency Offices of EEO provided for Agency participation at several minority conventions in order to contact potential applicants. These included the NAACP convention, the Image Convention and the Delta Sigma Theta Convention. In addition, the Office of Personnel and several Directorate OfUices participated at some of the above conventions and the Black Consortium. Participation included exhibits, speeches, display booths and recruiters. Results of these efforts cannot be measured immediately. However, the reception towards the Agency was warm in each case and many application forms were distributed as well as new contacts and sources developed. These activities will continue in the future.

In order to decrease the time between receipt of an applicant file and the decision to hire, the Agency instituted a Minority Employment Coordinator (MEC) position in the Office of Personnel and in each Directorate. These MEC's evaluate minority applications, determine suitability, reject marginal candidates and attempt to encourage acceptance of qualified candidates. This procedure has been useful in reducing the file review process. The Black Program Coordinator and the Hispanic Program Coordinator in the Office of EEO still review each rejected file of a minority applicant in order to judge the reason- ableness of the rejection. Often, they can suggest a different office which could use the qualifications of the applicant or can request a second look by a specific office. This review has served to point out the problem of position requirements versus qualifications requested by the Offices to the recruiters. Of continuing conco.rn to minority hiring is the separation that exist-, between the recruitment process and the hiring process -- One a centralized function, the other decentralized; one goal oriented and therefore accountability is insured, the other is not goal oriented and consequently no accountability can be enforced.

The PATB is a psychological assessment test given to applicants for professional positions with the Agency. The ?EEO, other Agency offices and minority interests groups within the Agency are presently reassessing the relevance utility, and legality of the PATB as a selection tool. Directorate efforts during this past year regarding increasing fflinority hiring are described. The Intelligence Directorate approached the problem of minority hiring by requesting from each of its offices the job and personnel requirements anticipated in 1977. The EEO Officer then developed inter-office recruiting teams which visited 17 campuses during the fiscal year. This year, their emphasis on recruitment will continue with increasing efforts directed towards recruiting minorities for the co-op and summer intern program. The Directorate for Administration requested each Office to provide up-to-date recruitment guides to the OP/MEC in order for the MEC to keep recruiters aware of Directorate needs. The Operations Directorate has made no significant progress in its hiring of minorities.

The Directorate assessments for this plan point out that they have surveyed their employees to uncover such talent. Employee potential for more challenging positions can be certified through aptitude tests and the initiative and performance observed by supervisors. Employees are also encouraged to review and update their personnel files to ensure that current training and experience is reflected. Each Directorate is getting more involved in career counseling. There are Career Development Officers at the Directorate and Office levels and in some cases panels dedicated to ovaLuating and placing junior level employees. The Agency also uses a Personnel Development Plan (PDP) through which managers identify those employees possessing abilities for advancement to executive levels. These employees should then he given training and assignments to prepare them for future responsibilities.

If it is to be truly an equitable and effective means of designating a:nd developing executive talent, it should be more effectixely used. FUST progress at Directorate-level this past year includes the skills survey underway in the Administration Directorate, the establishment of the position of DDI Career Development Officer and the DDSU training of junion level employees and supervisory personnel to supplement existing career counselors. The Agency relies on Career Boards and Promotion Panels in the Directorates for the assignment, development, training selection, etc., of its professional population. Thus, it is extremely important that these Panels and Boards be sensitive to the need for the fair and equitable treatment of all employees. The Office of EEO and all Agency EEO Officers have a responsibility to promote understanding and acceptance by these Boards of the principles of equal opportunity and affirmative action to ensure that these principles ore integral to all Board decisions, The definition of FUST also includes a responsibility to analyze the barriers to career development for minorities and women.

They recommended improving existing programs to meet CSC specifications and finally, developing cross-Directorate (Agency-wide) applicat on opportunities. During this fiscal year, the Directorate for Administration established a Directorate-wide program which meets CSC requirements. It is open to all DDA employees who have achieved at least two years of Agency service and are below GS-09 or equivalent. Throe component level formally structured programs also exist in DDA at this time. The Directorate for Intelligence is in the second year of its Directorate-wide program and expects to offer more positions to the applicants in FY 78. The Directorate for Science and Technology is in the process of developing a formal structured Upward Mobility program. One component in the Directorate aireaay has a program which complies with the CSC requirements. Several other comp-orients have un- structured yet productive activities which follow the spirit and intent of the CSC guidelines.

All are outgrowths of specific Directorate personnel needs and do not meet CSC require- ments. A serious impediment to any expansion of upward mobility in this Directorate is the current personnel reduction exercise which will make it more difficult to identify suitable bridge and trainee positions. The Directorate anticipates no increase, and even a possible diminution of upward mobility positions during the coming fiscal year. Thus, )ver the past year, many more employees have been afforded the opportunity to apply for Upward Mobility positions. However, not all deserving employees have this opportunity. It is the goal of the Upward Mobility- Coord- inator in the Office of LEO to work towards equitable opportunities for all employees and to enlarge the number of available Up-Mo positions. The Coordinator also needs to publicize the program and convince. some managers of its benefits. Many feel that Upward Mobility is just for minorities and women.; many feel it is a feeble attempt at job advancement; and some feel that it is not worth the effort of counselling, establishing selection criteria, and training required. An aggressive education process is planned.

Not all managers and supervisors are concerned to the necessary degree with such principles and it is this issue which is of primary concern to EEO officials. Education is a first step in acquiring the necessary support. During this year the Agency instituted a new Management for Equality of Opportunity Course (MEO) which was designed by the Office of EEO and the Office of Training. The course is based upon the assumption that equality for all Agency employees depends upon the awareness and behavior of managerial and supervisory personnel. Two requirements for such awareness are the factual information about EEO .which the supervisor needs to carry out his or her job and the establishment of favorable attitudes by the supervisor. Due to the very positive reception and results of this course, a second team of teachers for the MEO course is essential. In addition to training, other approaches to encouraging supervisory awareness include specific evaluation of the manager's understanding and support of EEO in performance evaluations and designing an awards program based on performance in the areas of human resource management and EEO.

Last year's EEO Plan also highlighted this problem and set out specific actions for the EEO Staff to accomplish. These activities were unrealistic in light of workload and available resources but they are valid and need to be addressed in this year's Plan. Three levels of evaluation are needed. Clearly, it is the responsibility of program coordinators to monitor their programs and attempt to measure results. It is the respon- sibility of the Directorate EEO Officers to measure the impact of EEO within their offices. Overall, the Director of EEO must provide the procedures to accomplish these evaluations as well as measuring the entire EEO program effectiveness. During this fiscal year, EEO Plan quarterly reports from the Directorates and program coordinators provided a valuable source of EEO accomplishments. In addition, the Deputy Dir ?tor of Central Intelligence required quarterly reports from the Directorates in five areas: recruitment of miaorities, upward mobility, status of professional women, full utilization of skills, and management commitment.

In addition to the quarterly 'report, two sources of evaluation continue to be utilized and improved. The first is from the special interest groups in the Agency: The Federal Women's Program Board. and Working Groups, the EEO Advisory Panel, Directorate Management Advisory Groups and interested employees. The second source is the continued use of statistics to serve as a signal of problems or successes. However, statistical measures alone do not indicate the full extent of what has or has not been accomplished. In summary, program evaluation must be performed more aggressively this year and Agency involvement in this evaluation is required.
