Section 19791 Of Chapter 12. State Civil Service Equal Employment Opportunity Program From California Government Code >> Division 5. >> Title 2. >> Part 2. >> Chapter 12.

. As used in this chapter, the following definitions apply:
(a) "Equal employment opportunity" mean ensuring nondiscrimination
and providing equal access to state jobs, work assignments,
training, and other employment-related opportunities for all
qualified job applicants and employees.
(b) "Underutilization" means having a statistically significant,
smaller percentage of persons of a group in an occupation or at a
level in a state agency than would reasonably be expected by their
percentage representation in the relevant labor force. An identified
underutilization is not necessarily indicative of a denial of equal
employment opportunity, but warrants an analysis of the cause of the
underutilization.
