Civil Rights On Deck
Civil Rights on Deck has been produced monthly since its inception in
June 2006. This vital workforce tool communicates EEO policies and
opportunities; issues notices about and reports progress on mandatory
training; offers a forum for exchange of ideas, practices and events between
agencies; honors individual women and minorities who contributed to USCG,
military, and Federal sector history and whose examples can inspire others;
spotlights EEO/civil rights achievers; and provides information about tools,
resources and events that supervisors and employees. The newsletter meets
model program set forth by EEOC by summarizing final agency decisions for
the benefit of all, identifying and disseminating best practices, and using
various media to distribute EEO information.
To make the newsletter accessible, it is distributed primarily
electronically; paper editions also are produced and available to persons
preferring that format. To induce readership and increase readability and
utility, its length is kept to one page (front and back) within which are
numerous stories, offering contact points (web sites, phone numbers) for
obtaining additional information. The newsletter greatly increases
visibility of the USCG civil rights effort.
