EEOC TO HOLD PUBLIC FORUM ON JUNE 23 TO DISCUSS FIELD REPOSITIONING PLAN

WASHINGTON -  A public forum will be held at 2:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) on Thursday, June 23, 2005, at the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) to discuss the repositioning plan for EEOC's field offices.

       

At the forum, EEOC Chair Cari M. Dominguez will lead a panel of senior EEOC managers who will give an overview of the repositioning plan followed by a moderated question and answer session. Information regarding the proposed plan can be found on the EEOC's web site, www.eeoc.gov.

     

The repositioning proposal has been in development for several years and was released five weeks ago.  In addition to the significant input that was received prior to the release of the proposal, comments are currently being solicited from both the public and EEOC employees, and briefings have been held with stakeholder groups.  This forum will provide a further opportunity for interested parties to obtain clarification on the proposal.  The Commission is scheduled to meet on July 8, 2005, to deliberate and vote on the proposal.

   

The forum will be held at EEOC Headquarters in Washington, D.C. in the Clarence M. Mitchell, Jr., Conference Room (9th floor), 1801 L Street, N.W.  Persons who wish to attend and participate in the question and answer session should notify the Commission's Executive Secretariat no later than close of business June 21, 2005, by e-mail to stephen.llewellyn@eeoc.gov, or by fax at 202-663-4114, or telephone at 202-663-4070, TTY at 202-663-4074.  Those who wish to submit questions in advance may do so to the above e-mail address or fax number.
