Sacramento County
Equal Employment Opportunity Policy

It is the policy of the Sacramento County Board of Supervisors to provide equal opportunities in all areas of employment to all people, regardless of race, color, sex, national origin, age, marital status, religion, ancestry, medical condition, disability, political affiliation, sexual orientation, or other factors not directly related to the duties of the county jobs involved.

This Board encourages and supports the civil Service Commission, County Executive and Human Resource Administrator in efforts to develop and implement such personnel rules and procedures necessary to create a workforce representative of the county in which we serve.  The Board commits all personnel of Sacramento County in this initiative to innovative policy development, implementation, and service delivery best practices to achieve workforce diversity.  This includes increased uniform communication between county agencies and direct contact with community organizations.

As a matter of policy, achieving equal opportunity within the County government shall be given high priority by all departments of the County and shall receive prompt and full attention at all times.  As such, each department head shall analyze all aspects of employment in his or her department to identify underutilization or inequalities in the county workforce.  All actions taken must cover all elements of personnel policy and management practices and must be consistent and supportive of the Board's Equal Opportunity Policy.
