The Honorable, The Senate:
Pursuant to s.
230.04 (9)(e), Wis. Stats., I am pleased to submit the 2001 Annual Report on Affirmative Action for Wisconsin state Government. The report summarizes the progress in diversity for minorities, women and employees with disabilities.
We are please to report that last year Wisconsin State government had the highest percentage (16.4%) of newly hired minorities in the state's history. This percentage is more than twice the representation of minorities in the general Wisconsin labor force (7.5%).
The report is available on the DER web page:
http://der.state.wi.us/static/EEOAAreport.htm. Please advise members of the Wisconsin Senate of the report's availability. You may contact Pepe Indalecio of the Division of Affirmative Action at 266-6475 if you have any questions or need additional information.
Sincerely,
Peter D. Fox
Secretary
