EEO Annual Report, April 1, 2008 - March 31, 2009

WNKU-FM

Licensee: Northern Kentucky University

 

The FCC has established Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) rules and policies for broadcasters. The rules prohibit discrimination in hiring on the basis of race, color, religion, national origin, or gender by broadcasters. They also require broadcasters to:

provide notice of job vacancies;

– by widely distributing information concerning each full-time (30 hours or more) job vacancy, except for vacancies that need to be filled in demanding or special circumstances;

– provide notice of each full-time job vacancy to recruitment organizations that request notice; and

– complete two (for broadcast employment units with five to 10 full-time employees or that are located in smaller markets) or four (for employment units with more than 10 full-time employees located in larger markets) longer-term recruitment initiatives within each two-year period. These initiatives can include job fairs, scholarship and internship programs, and other community events designed to inform the public about employment opportunities in broadcasting.

The purpose of this EEO Annual Report is to comply with Section 73.2080(c)(6) of the Federal Communication Commission's EEO Rules. This report can be found in the public inspection file at the WNKU studios, and on the station's website, www.wnku.org

FCC EEO rules require that this report contain the following information:


1) A list of the full-time vacancies filled by the reporting station during
the reporting period;

2) For each such vacancy, the recruitment source(s) utilized to fill the
vacancy identified by name, address, contact person and telephone number;

3) The recruitment source that referred the hiree for each full-time vacancy during the reporting period;

4) Data reflecting the total number of persons interviewed for full-time vacancies during the reporting period and the total number of interviewees referred by each recruitment source utilized in connection with such vacancies;

5) A list and brief description of the initiatives undertaken pursuant to Section 73.2080(c)(6) of the FCC's EEO Rules during the reporting period
