5. Mattie L. Woody v. Etowah County Probate Judge, United
States District Court for the Northern District of Alabama,
Civil Action # CV-84-AR-1100-M, filed December 10, 1984. The
action alleged that the Probate Judge discriminated against Mrs.
Woody in the terms and conditions of her employ-
ment because of her race by paying higher wages to white clerks
having the same duties and less experience in work. Later the
suit was amended to name the Etowah County Commission. The
action was defended by the attorneys for the insurance carriers
for the county. It is believed that this case was dismissed
with prejudice.
Emily Howell v. Etowah County Commission, United States
District Court for the Northern District of Alabama, Civil
Action # CV-83-AR-2497-M. The plaintiff sought reinstatement
with back pay for alleged discriminatory conduct on account of
her race; that she was denied a position of key-punch operator
on account of her race and was subsequently discharged because
of having assertive rights under the Federal Anti-Discrimination
Laws. The action was dismissed on May 15, 1984.
Emily Howell Davis v. Etowah County Commission, United
States District Court for the Northern District of Alabama,
Civil Action #CV-85-AR-0217-M. Plaintiff alleged that her
duties qualified her for other, higher paying positions with the
county other than a data entry clerk for which she was employed;
that vacancies occurred in other positions but instead of
filling those positions with Mrs. Davis, she was passed over for
other employees because of her race and color. The case was
dismissed.
6. Yes. Ms. Guy E. Harris vs. Etowah County Sheriff's
Department, EEOC Complaint No. 04281-1151. Ms. Harris stated
she believed she was being discriminated against because of her
race and her sex in not being permitted to select shift
assignments during her work as a matron in the Etowah County
Jail. It is believed that EEOC found no reasonable cause to
believe that the allegations were true.
Mrs. Mattie L. Woody v. Etowah County Probate Judge's
Office, EEOC No. 04283-1803. Mrs. Woody claimed discrimination
against her in respect to wages because of her race. EEOC found
no reasonable cause to believe that the allegations made in the
charge were true.
Ms. Judy Harris v. Etowah County CETA Prime Sponsor. EEOC
No. 042831220. Ms. Harris complained of sexual advancements by
the director of CETA, Mr. Harold T. Mayo, and alleged that she
was treated that way by the Director of the Etowah County Prime
Sponsor and the Etowah County Commission because she was a black
female. It is believed that the EEOC found no basis for the
charge. But no final disposition is noted.
Emily Howell v. Etowah County Commission, EEOC No.
042830200. Mrs. Howell alleged discrimination based upon her
race in that she was denied a position of key-punch operator and
was subsequently discharged by the Etowah County Commission
because of her having asserted rights under the Federal
Anti-discrimination laws. EEOC found no reasonable cause to
believe that the allegations made the basis of the action were
true.

Findings of Fact and Remedies
Etowah County Employment Practices
a)” Findings of Fact
Documents obtained during the investigation disclosed that
the County has a full-time labor force of 146 persons. Blacks
and women are significantly underrepresented in County employment comprising only 11 (7.5%) and 40 (27.4%) respectively compared to
their availability in the civilian labor force of 12% and 34.9%.
Evidence clearly indicates a similar underrepresentation of
blacks and women in the County Sheriff's Department. While there
dre 26 sworn deputies, only 2 or 7.7% are black. There are no
female deputies in the Sheriff's Department.
Further investigation revealed that of 52 nonelected, full-
time employees earning $700 or more per month, only one or 1.9%
is black. This figure reflects the concentration of blacks in
lower paying, less responsible positions.
The evidence gathered also disclosed that the County appears
to have done Tittle to recruit blacks or women for postions with
“the County government. Since 1972, the County has hired only
six (6) blacks who are still employed by the County. Of forty-
seven (47) skilled and unskilled laborers employed by the County's four (4) Road Districts, only two (2) or 4.2% are black. Further
examination disclosed that the districts have hired at least
eight (8) employees since 1972 who are presently employed. None
of these are black. :
The County's employment application form contains preemploy- ment inquires regarding: birthplace, height and weight, physical handicap or impairment and marital status. Such inquiries have
been shown to be discriminatory against various minorities and women.
b) Remedy
Submit an affirmative action plan to the Office of
Revenue Sharing for approval. The plan shall include goals and timetables for the employment of women and minorities in all departments/districts in percentages which reflect their availabi- lity in the County's labor market which is 12% minority and 34.9%
ai
women. The plan shall also provide for specific methods to recruit minorities and women for employment (inall positions in all depart- ments/districts) with the County, including the Sheriff's Depart- i ment.
; Take immediate steps to ensure that all applicants for employ- = ment with Etowah County are selected on the basis of their quali- oh fications not their race, throughout the County government, including 5 | the Sheriff's Department. : : FRSA i Hin
EVE : Eliminate the preemployment inquiries cited above in the County's (a > employment application form, or provide this Office evidence that ¥ the inquiries are job related and have been validated.
This Office is aware that Etowah County is divided into appro- ximately eighteen departments or districts. However, a review of the evidence disclosed that all eighteen departments or districts are recipients of entitlement funds. Etowah County is therefore advised that the findings of fact and remedies contained in this i document are applicable to all units of the Etowah County government.
Submit. annual reports to the Office of Revenue Sharing de- : scribing the progress made during the previous year to select and upgrade minorities and women in the work force. The report shall pe also include a current roster of all full-time employees by depart- ment/district indicating name, race, sex, date of hire, starting “ position, starting salary, present position, present salary, and last date of promotion.
§
PE : The first report shall be due one year following this Office's fi : acceptance of the County's Affirmative Action Plan and annually : thereafter.

NARRATIVE - EMPLOYMENT GOALS, ETOWAH COUNTY
Due to the current fiscal situation in Etowah County, and
in Alabama Counties generally, theve can be no realistic pro-
jection of expansion either in County avy ican or employment
opportunity with the County. Therefore, any increase sn the
percentage (s) of the female and minority employees in any level
of County employment must be based on normal attrition and pro-
motion. As retirement, resignatio Cevrmination, or promotion/
demotion of present employees occu 5» the County will conduct the
hiring process without discrimination and will promote minority
group persons and females presently employed as the opportunity
arises.
Some immediate steps can be ioken, however, to give partial
remedy:
(a) specifically the Sheriff s Department will hire
two (2) female employees for full > 11 deputy status,
With the understanding inat they will be sent to
the Alabama ifaw Enforcement Academy within the next
nine months to complete six weeks of training re-
quired for all deputies in Alabama. These erioyees

JOB STEREOTYPING
The County admits that certain sex stereotyping generally
exists both in County employment and in the surrounding labor |
market. The traditional mele designation as road repairman,
maintenanceman, policeman, messenaor boy and yardman are in the
past and so are the artificial barviers for employment. Cinuin
County will promote female intereci iyi the Road Departments,
Sheriff's Department, Engineering Department and all other depart-
ments of the County through the recruiting and applicant process
~adopted with this plan.
The County expects to find, cven after a strong Affirmative
Action Program, a heavy concentration of females in office and

The recruiting processaand our contact with agencies and

the clerical field.

much of County employment is in these {wo areas.
