EEOC: Annual Report on the Federal Work Force Fiscal Year 2009

Annual Report on the Federal Work Force Fiscal Year 2009. From the Executive Summary:

  • In FY 2009, there were almost 2.8 million women and men employed by the federal government across the country and around the world.
    1. 55.9% were men and 44.1% were women; after a slow but steady increase, the participation rate for women fell slightly from last year (44.13% to 44.06%).
    2. 7.9% were Hispanic or Latino, 65.6% were White, 18.0% were Black or African American, 5.8% were Asian, 0.3% were Native Hawaiian/Other Pacific Islander, 1.7% were American Indian/Alaska Native, and 0.7% were persons of Two or More Races.
  • Between FY 2008 and FY 2009, Women, Hispanic or Latino men and women, men and women of Two or More Races, and White women remained below their overall availability in the national civilian labor force, as reported in the 2000 census (CLF).
  • After a steady decline for the past ten years, the participation rate of employees with targeted disabilities in the federal work force held steady in FY 2009 at 0.88%. Despite a modest net gain of 236 employees in FY 2009 over FY 2008, Individuals with Targeted Disabilities still fell far short of the 2% goal set by EEOC’s LEAD Initiative.
