OM 763 (rev.)
Amendment 1

Part II

D. All supervisory employees, managers and principal investigators are responsible for assuring compliance with the full spirit of the Institution's policy and for evaluating the effectiveness of the Plan in their organizations.

E. Individual members of the Smithsonian staff at all levels must work to eradicate prejudice and discrimination and genuinely support our commitment to achieving equal opportunity.

AFFIRMATIVE ACTION PLAN COVERAGE

Each major office, organizational component or bureau is required to tailor an affirmative action plan to its particular needs.  These plans are to be the "brain children" of the directors, employees, supervisors, labor representatives, and other staff members.  Hopefully, the plans developed by this amalgamation will create the simple and practical kinds of affirmative actions which would help eliminate all vestiges of discrimination, past and present.  These plans are to state the EEO problem, an action item that would eliminate the problem, and the responsible officials for completing the action item.
