34 Pa. Code § 81.23. Goals and timetables—when required.

§ 81.23. Goals and timetables—when required.

 (a)  A sponsor adopting one of the selection methods specified in § §  81.32 and 81.33 (relating to selection on basis of rank from pool of eligible applicants; random selection from pool of eligible applicants) and which determines on the basis of the analysis described in §  81.24 (relating to analysis to determine if deficiencies exist) that it has deficiencies in terms of underutilization of minorities or women—minority and nonminority—or both, in the craft or crafts represented by the program shall include in its affirmative action plan percentage goals and timetables for the admission of minority and female—minority and nonminority—applicants into the eligibility pool.

 (b)  A sponsor adopting one of the selection methods specified in § §  81.34 and 81.35 (relating to selection from pool of current employes; alternative selection methods) and which determines on the basis of the analysis described in §  81.24 (relating to analysis to determine if deficiencies exist) that it has deficiencies in terms of the underutilization of minorities or women, or both, in the craft or crafts represented by the program shall include in its affirmative action plan percentage goals and timetables for the selection of minorities or women—minority and nonminority—or both, applicants for the apprenticeship program.

 (c)  ‘‘Underutilization’’ as used in this section refers to the situation where there are fewer minorities or women—minority and nonminority—or both, in the particular craft or crafts represented by the program than would reasonably be expected in view of an analysis of the factors specified in §  81.24 (relating to analysis to determine if deficiencies exist). Where, on the basis of such analysis, the sponsor determines that it has no deficiencies, goals, and timetables need not be established; however, where no goals and timetables are established, the affirmative action plan shall include a detailed explanation why no goals and timetables have been established.

 (d)  Where the sponsor fails to submit goals and timetables as part of its affirmative action plan or submits goals and timetables which are unacceptable, and the Council determines that the sponsor has deficiencies in terms of underutilization of minorities or women—minority and nonminority, the Council shall establish goals and timetables applicable to the sponsor for the admission of minority and female—minority and nonminority—applicants into the eligibility pool or selection of apprentices, as appropriate. The sponsor shall make good faith efforts to attain these goals and timetables.
