What is the role of the EEO Program within the Albuquerque Area Indian Health Service?
The EEO Program within IHS enables the Agency to concentrate on providing quality health care to Native American Indians in two ways: (1) it ensures that employment-related decisions within the workplace are made fairly, so that employee’s energies can be devoted directly to the IHS mission, and (2) through the Affirmative Employment Program and in conjunction with the Office of Personnel, it locates and develops qualified Indians and others to meet IHS workforce needs.
