Paylor) Subject: DOI non-discrimination memo Folks, I'm sending you a copy of a Dept. of Interior memo that just came out concerning sexual orientation. Enjoy! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The Secretary of the Interior Washington MEMORANDUM TO: All Employees January 26, 1994 FROM: The Secretary SUBJECT: Supplement to the Equal Employment Opportunity Policy; Sexual Orientation I want to re-emphasize my personal commitment to a goal which ensures equal opportunity for all Americans. To enhance that goal, the Equal Opportunity Policy, dated December 7, 1993, is expanded to include sexual orientation as it relates to all matters of employment. We will not condone discrimination based on sexual orientation within this Department. We recognize the importance of selecting the best possible person for the work to be done and for providing all Americans with equal employment opportunities. All Interior employees deserve and must be given respect so that the work place is free of intimidation, fear, and other counter productive elements. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Looks like glb* employees are finally getting somewhere!
