Equal Opportunity Advisory Board

The Equal Opportunity Advisory Board was previously known as the Affirmative Action
Advisory Board. This board was originally created in 1976 through Ordinance 8519. Presently
the Board is comprised of 14 members, 10 appointed by the commissioners and four appointees
from the employee bargaining unions. Each commissioner appoints two members and each
certified bargaining representatives of employees recommends one employee who has to be
confirmed by the City Commission. This Board was created shortly before the signing of the
Consent Decree and was instrumental in overseeing the changes that have occurred in the City of
Miami workforce. At that time, Blacks, Hispanics and women of all races were severely
underrepresented in the overall workforce of the city as well as in particular jobs. Today, this
workforce is predominately made up of Blacks, Hispanics and women. These groups make up
approximately 87.8% of the overall workforce (Black males/18%, Hispanic mules/38%,
women/31%). There is now ethnic and gender representation in jobs that were previously held
by mostly white men, though there are still goals that we must strive to achieve. This board and
the staff of the Equal Opportunity/Diversity Programs Division must continue to oversee the
hiring and promotional processes so that the gains of the past 23 years are not lost. In this new
era, without the oversight of the court and the U. S. Department of Justice, we must be even
more vigilant in the hiring and promoting of employees. This function is a part of the work of
our support staff, the Equal Opportunity/Diversity Programs Division. This makes it imperative
that the EEO Officer have an "open door" to the Chief Executive Officer this city, the City
Manager. When I last addressed this Commission as Chairperson of the Equal Opportunity
Advisory Board in March of 2002, we asked that the Office of Equal Opportunity/Diversity
Programs remain independent of any department. Until October 1, 2001, the Office of Equal
Opportunity/Diversity Programs was independent of any department. As part of the budget
ISc USSED
process in 2001, this very important function was placed under the Department of Human
Resources, now the Department of Employee Relations. Besides being independent, this office
must be given sufficient staff and fiscal resources to perform these most important functions.
The staff must be able to investigate charges of discrimination as an independent office so that
employees and applicants do not perceive that there is a conflict of interest in an investigation.
Just like Internal Audits and Professional Compliance must be independent in order to perform
audits and investigations, so we believe that Equal Opportunity/Diversity Programs must become
an independent office once again. This office must investigate any complaint of employment
discrimination that is filed against the City of Miami. Most important, it must be able to serve as
a resource to both employees and managers so that everyone knows their rights and
responsibilities.
The Board and the Office of Equal Opportunity/Diversity Programs continues to work closely
with the Police and Fire -Rescue departments in recruitment efforts and in support of training
efforts for candidates. This training assists candidates for sworn positions who want to be hired
or promoted, in an attempt to prepare them for taking the examinations. It is the belief of this
board that recruiting applicants who cannot perform well on the test does nothing to increase
representation. Also, if you have minorities and women at the entry position but they do not
perform well enough to be promoted, this hinders the efforts for representation at all levels.
In an effort to open communications and to build bridges, this boardwill corlt'n t i vite
Subs�atrp lnl the public

PriSrAlla A.
City Clerk
On a monthly basis, the board receives an EEO report on the ethnic/gender make up of the City's
workforce, by departments and a report on discrimination cases for review. The board may hear
grievances and discrimination complaints when referred by the City's EEO OcUSSED
—v U
This board will continue to monitor the makeup of the City's workforce and discrimination
complaints by employees and applicants. Furthermore, we will continue to support training
efforts that help candidates to succeed and to have the EEO Officer provide EEO training and
information to our employees.
We look forward to continuing our work with this commission and city staff.
