Equity, Inclusion & Diversity (EID) Initiatives
As of 2019, all state agencies are required to publicly reaffirm their commitment to hiring and retaining a diverse workforce through their agency-specific Equity and Inclusion Plans. These plans analyze workforce trends within the agency, identify areas of improvement in the areas of recruitment, retention, and workplace culture practices, and set goals to achieve progress in those areas. You can find each agency's Equity & Inclusion Plan on their department's website. You can also learn more about the State's Equity and Inclusion structure here:
