Abstract

The purpose of this study was to select from Office of Contract Compliance Program Affirmative Action those guidelines that were time and effort efficient toward achieving personnel integration. The research procedures included rank ordering the guidelines and identifying basic guidelines suitable for any organization's affirmative action plan, and determining consensus of behavior among respondents from diverse organizations regarding their guideline choices. Business respondents selected to participate were identified by members from the United States Commission on Civil Rights, The National Council of La Raza, and the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs. University respondents were arbitrarily limited to administrators and affirmative action officers from state, four-year and upper level, higher education institutions in Colorado and Florida. The response to the survey yielded a rank order of priority listing of affirmative action guidelines, ten basic affirmative action guidelines considered worthwhile for all organizations to include in their affirmative action plans, and a comparison of the behaviors of business and university administrators instituting personnel integration in their organizations.
