TITLE: Navy EEO Labor Market Availability Data for the Early
1990's. Research Report No. 47.
YEAR PUBLISHED: 1986
NOTE: 160 p.
ABSTRACT: This report provides an update to 1992 of the Navy
equal employment opportunity (EEO) and affirmative action
availability data for each of the 64 local labor markets in
which the U.S. Navy employs 250 or more civilian employees.
Data are provided for the following nine major occupational
categories: engineering and science technicians, scientists
and engineers, other professionals, management and
administrative personnel, other technicians, clerical
occupations, other general schedule occupations, craftsmen
and mechanics, and operatives and service workers. Data were
collected and analyzed within the framework of the Civilian
Occupation Planning Estimates System (COPES). Available
labor force (AVAIL) models were used in conjunction with
U.S. Census data to examine all persons in the civilian
labor force to determine who would consider a specific Navy
job an opportunity. The first step in compiling the data was
to determine which workers and nonworkers match given Navy
jobs with respect to wage bands, skill requirements, and
educational and occupational skill/experience requirements.
Next, the estimated available labor force for each job was
further broken down by sex and race (White, Black, Hispanic,
and other). The data are expected to be used for a variety
of staffing policy decisions and research studies.
(Appendixes include a listing of the principal Department of
Navy local labor markets for civilian personnel planning;
projected supply ratios for 1982 for each of the labor
markets with breakdowns of male and female percentages by
racial group; and information on possible measurement
errors, confidence limits, and error measures for the AVAIL
model.) (MN)

Education Information Network for providing ready access
to the literature of education -descriptions of exemplary
programs, research and development efforts, and related
information that can be used in developing more effective
educational programs. The ERIC database is currently
available on CD-ROM in the main library (ground floor of
the west wing) at Michigan State University. To locate
ERIC documents in the library identify the first line of
each record (i.e., the field ERIC TITLE NUMBER). ED
following ERIC TITLE NUMBER indicates an ERIC document,
an unpublished research study. Most of these items are
available in the Microforms library, located on the 3rd
floor of the west wing. All you need is the six digit ED
number. If EJ follows ERIC TITLE NUMBER the item is a
journal article. The complete journal name is listed after
