The Equal Employment Opportunity Advisory Committee partners with the County in its efforts to attract and retain an inclusive workforce that reflects the diverse community we serve.
In San Joaquin County, we believe that every individual is important and adds to the overall quality of our organization. We view diversity in our workplace as a business strength; essential to providing excellent support and services to the community we serve.
We are committed to fostering an inclusive and welcoming environment, reflective of the diversity of our community. We are committed to an environment where every individual may grow personally and professionally, where everyone’s contributions are acknowledged, respected, and appreciated, and where we celebrate the differences that make us a strong organization. By working together, we can attract, develop, recognize and retain highly skilled and talented individuals who best represent all dimensions of diversity in all levels of the organization.
Workplace diversity encompasses a broad range of human qualities. These qualities include, but are not limited to, age, education level, ethnicity, gender, gender identity or expression, geographic origin, job classification, mental or physical disability, national origin, political belief, race, religious belief, sexual orientation, socio-economic status, and work experience. In San Joaquin County, diversity in the workplace means empowering a workforce that is inclusive of these human qualities, which in practice recognizes and embraces the unique contributions of individuals, creating a work environment that maximizes the potential of all employees.
