ABSTRACT: Information is presented to assist Hawaii
employers in developing affirmative action plans as
required for federal contract compliance. In the first
section, information is provided on the ramifications of
geographical area coverage, the sources for the attached
statistical data, the definition of manpower resources, and
the availability of this data package and related
background information (for employers from the Research and
Statistics Office of the Hawaii State Department of Labor
and Industrial Relations). Consideration of all manpower
resources is emphasized in evaluating and establishing
goals for the utilization of minorities and women in the
work force. In section 2 an occupation classification
system with twelve major headings is outlined; in section
3, thirteen population and/or labor force definitions are
given. In the last section, tables of the 1970 Hawaii
population census data are provided. The four tables
include (1) population and labor force statistics by sex
and minority status, (2) labor force information by sex and
minority status, (3) occupation of employed persons by sex
and minority status, and (4) previous occupation of
unemployed persons by sex and minority status. All data is
presented for the state and for the four individual
counties. (CSS)
