The U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM) presents the Fiscal Year 2000 Federal Equal Opportunity Recruitment Program (FEORP) report. The FEORP is an important recruiting initiative designed to eliminate underrepresentation of minorities and women in the Federal service. It was established and assigned to OPM by the Civil Service Reform Act of 1978 (5 U.S.C. 7201).

 

Federal agencies should use the FEORP report as a resource to develop strategic plans to increase diversity, as well as to develop recruitment and retention programs. We encourage agency heads to ensure that the FEORP is clearly understood by selecting officials and all levels of management.

 

We suggest that this FEORP report be widely distributed; copies may be obtained by calling OPMs Diversity Office at 202-606-1059.
