Pay Equity Package - Evaluation and expansion of diverse recruitment and retention within the municipal government.

A Local Law to amend the New York city charter and the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to the evaluation and expansion of diverse recruitment and retention within the municipal government

This bill would require the Department of Citywide Administrative Services (DCAS) to assess its efforts to provide equal opportunity for a diverse universe of municipal employees and applicants for municipal employment. In connection with such assessment, this bill would require DCAS to report annually on civil service examination outcomes, including passage rates, eligible list certifications, and accepted appointments. In addition, DCAS would be required to report information on participation and passage of City agency training programs relevant to civil service appointments or promotions. City agencies would be required to provide DCAS with information related to their recruitment efforts, including related expenditures, events, and development of examination preparatory materials. Further, this bill would require the Office of Diversity and Inclusion to train City agencies to develop job postings and recruitment materials that promote diverse recruitment.
