People are our most valuable resource.
During these times of limited resources, it is particularly important that we take positive actions to ensure compliance with Navy regulations and federal mandates regarding Equal Opportunity (EO) for service members and Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) for civilian employees. We must ensure fair and equitable treatment of both military and civilian personnel and be sensitive toward our culturally diverse work force. To achieve mission accomplishment, personnel must realize the significance of the diversity within our military community. Our actions must be such that race, color, religion, gender, age, non-disqualifying handicap, or national origin are never an issue in any leader's or supervisor's decision within the work place.
As Commander, Navy Region Northwest, I am committed to Equal Opportunity and Equal Employment Opportunity as a command function. Equal Opportunity is not just the right thing to do it is key to readiness.
It is my responsibility to ensure all active duty personnel, reserve service members, and civil service employees have the right to do their jobs without fear of discrimination or harassment.
