Sec. 400.212. - Hiring.

It shall be the policy of the City to make hiring decisions that result in a highly qualified workforce to conduct City activities and functions. Recruitment efforts for entrance into City employment should be directed toward reaching all segments of the population and shall be designed to attract a wide and diverse pool of qualified applicants. Selection devices, when used, should be in compliance with applicable federal, State and local laws, rules and regulations governing equal employment opportunity and equal employment opportunity plans, including the federal Uniform Guidelines on Employee Selection Procedures. A selection device which results in adverse impact, as defined by law, should not be used unless content, construct or criterion-related validity can be clearly demonstrated and/or the demographics of the available workforce are such that adverse impact is unavoidable.
