officio governing Board RESOLVES THAT:
A. The Human Resources Department is authorized to implement the Tactical
Employment Team Program (TETP). The objective of this program is to mitigate

The main components of the program are as follows

to employees separated through layoff when filling vacant, project, temporary,
and contract positions. The Department shall freeze vacancies in other
departments for possible placement of laid off employees who possess the
required knowledge, skills and abilities for the position.
2. Outplacement. A resource center shall be established within Human
Resources Department to provide career counseling, workshops on resume
preparation and oral interview tips, job search resources and tools, retraining
opportunities, and registration with temporary employment agencies.
3. Personal Support. In cooperation with the Employee Assistance Program
and other professional organizations, personal support services shall be made
available to laid off employees, including financial planning, crisis intervention
counseling, stress management, and retirement planning.
B. Contra Costa County serves a large, diverse population which is reflected in the
diversity of the County's workforce and that of its dependent districts. It is the
policy of Contra Costa County to comply with all applicable local, state and federal
laws governing equal employment.
C. The County Administrator shall forward a copy of this resolution to all
department heads emphasizing the importance of cooperating with the TETP in
order to ensure that employees who are laid off are given every opportunity to
continue their employment with the County in another capacity or to be placed in
appropriate employment elsewhere.
