Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
An affirmative action program includes procedures designed to increase the numbers of minorities,
women and persons with disabilities at all levels and in all segments of the work force where imbalances
exist. Such a program should include an assessment of the existing situation, and the development of
realistic goals for necessary action. These goals and related procedures and timetables should not
require rigid quotas, but are commitments that an employer should make every good faith effort to
achieve. [PL 2021, c. 348, §1 (AMD).]
