The Equal Rights Opportunity Act of 1972 made it unlawful to discriminate against women and minorities. In response, Seattle City Light began to actively recruit from these populations. The utility developed initiatives to support women through their training, redesigned programs to accommodate women in the trades, and provided training to employees to prevent discrimi nation and sexual harassment. The records include statistcs on women and minorities at Seattle City Light, women in trad es initiatives and advertising, the apprenticeship program's collaboration with the Office of Women's Rights, an Education Welfare Reform Program guide, and information on investment in human capital.
