IV. EMPLOYEE WORK FORCE ANALYSES

A. Work Force Analysis

  • In accordance with the requirements of Revised Order 4 of the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs regulations, the University has analyzed the overall composition of its work force as well as that existing in the various divisions and functional units of the University by job title, minority group status and sex. These detailed analyses are included in this plan as Appendix C and are as follows:

  • 0006

  • 1. Analysis of full-time instructional faculty by academic rank, tenure status, minority status, sex and salary code.
  • 2. Analysis of full-time instructional faculty by academic rank, tenure status, minority status, sex and salary code within academic divisions.
  • 3. Analysis of full-time instructional faculty by academic rank, tenure status, minority status, sex and salary code for departments within schools.
  • 4. Analysis of non-instructional employees by job class, minority status, sex and salary code for each EEO-6 category.
  • 5. Analysis of non-instructional employees by job class, minority status, sex and salary code within functional units or departments.

B. Availability Analysis

1. Instructional Faculty.

Requirements for employment as a full-time faculty member at the University typically include the attainment of a doctoral degree in a particular academic area. In the schools of Architecture, Nursing and Law, a doctoral degree may not be required, but a masters degree or J.D. degree is generally required.

The University of Virginia recruits faculty from national pools. Thus the female and minority availability pools for instructional faculty


0007

contained in this plan are based upon recent national degree productivity data. The availability percentages by academic area for females, minorities, and blacks are as follows:
          
Academic Area  % Female  % Minority  % Black 
Architecture  21  11 
Arts and Sciences  20 
Commerce 
Graduate Business 
Education  26  11 
Engineering 
Law 
Medicine  10 
Nursing  97 

  • The following sources were utilized in developing the above availability percentages:
  • (a) Professional Women and Minorities (last updated July, 1977); a manpower data resource service of the Scientific Manpower Commission, American Association for the Advancement of Science.

  • 0008

  • (b) Preliminary report on total masters and doctors degrees awarded in appropriate disciplines, for years 1975-76 obtained from HEW, Office of Civil Rights, March, 1978.
  • (c) American Association of Medical Colleges, Washington, D. C.

2. Non-instructional employees.

The University of Virginia is by far the largest employer in the Charlottesville-Albemarle and surrounding county area. The following information concerning the labor force composition appears in Manpower Information for Affirmative Action Programs, State of Virginia, 1976:

   
Labor Force  Total  % Female  % Minority  % Black 
State of Virginia  2,306,000  39.9  18.9  17.6 
Charlottesville-Albemarle  64,430  39.3  19.2  18.5 

Except for the two EEO categories, Executive/Administrative/Managers and Professional, non-instructional employees are hired predominately from the Charlottesville-Albemarle and surrounding county area. Executive/Administrative/Managers are recruited from national availability pools, while Professionals are recruited from state availability pools. Educational requirements for these two categories generally include a bachelor's degree and may, in addition, require graduate education


0009

or professional certification. The availability percentages for non-instructional employees by EEO category for females, minorities and blacks are tabulated as follows:
       
EEO Category  % Female  % Minority  % Black 
Executive/Admin./Mgr.  21 
Professional  28 
Clerical/Secretarial  75 
Technical/Para-Prof.  58 
Skilled Crafts  11  11 
Service/Maint.  47  41  41 

  • The following sources were utilized in developing the above availability percentages:
  • (a) Virginia Employment Commission, Richmond, Virginia.
  • (b) Manpower Information for Affirmative Action Programs, State of Virginia, 1976, Manpower Research Division, Virginia Employment Commission, Richmond, Virginia.

C. Utilization Analysis

On the basis of the preceding Work Force Analysis and Availability Analysis, the University has determined where utilization of females, minorities and blacks is less than the proportion in the relevant labor market area for both instructional faculty and non-instructional employees. This analysis is displayed in Table 1 for instructional faculty by academic division and in Table 2 for non-instructional employees by EEO category. Source references for each availability percentage are also provided.
