HRD-80-95 1 (1980-09-17)

handle is hein.gao/gaobabbao0001 and id is 1 raw text is: BY THE COMPTROLLER GENERAL Report To The Congress OF THE UNITED STATES Employment Service Needs To Emphasize Equal Opportunity In Job Referrals The U.S. Employment Service generally has referred minority and women applicants to low-paying jobs traditionally filled by minori- ties and women. Whites and males generally have been referred to better paying jobs. Two factors which have contributed to these dis- parities appear to be beyond the Employ- ment Service's control--the kinds of jobs em- ployers place with the Employment Service, and applicants' lack of skills. While persons applying for jobs through the Employment Service were treated equally, local office procedures have reinforced tradi- tional job patterns. The Department of Labor and the States have done little to enforce Fed- eral equal opportunity requirements. Labor can make some changes to better ensure that the Employment Service provides equal opportunity to minority and female applicants. Recent changes in the Comprehensive Employ- ment and Training Act program may help ap- plicants who need training to compete for better paying jobs. FI ST~ HRD-80-95 1C6COU SEPTEMBER 17, 1980
