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

19791
. 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.
