Cal. Code Regs. tit. 5 § 53023

Current through Register 2024 Notice Reg. No. 52, December 27, 2024

Section 53023 - Applicant Pool Review

(a) The application for employment shall provide for self-identification of the applicant's gender (including non-binary options), ethnic group identification and, if applicable, disability. This information shall be kept confidential and shall be used only in research, monitoring, evaluating the effectiveness of the district's equal employment opportunity program, or another similar purpose authorized by law.

(b) All initial applications shall be screened to determine which candidates satisfy the job specifications. The candidates who meet the job specifications shall constitute the "qualified applicant pool."

(c) Districts shall conduct an initial demographic review of the qualified applicant pool before an application deadline for a district position closes. If the pool's candidate diversity is not consistent with the diversity goals of the EEO Plan, the district may extend the search period.

(d) The composition of the qualified applicant pool shall be reviewed and compared to the composition of the initial applicant pool. If the EEO Officer or designee finds that the composition of the qualified applicant pool may have been influenced by factors that are not job related, appropriate action shall be taken. This applicant pool data shall be reviewed in conducting the analysis described in section 53006(a).
