Goals of a Special Emphasis Program Manager
The term “Special Emphasis Programs” (SEP) refers to those programs which
focus special attention on certain specific groups as a result of a particular
law, regulation, or Executive Order. Special Emphasis Programs have been
initiated to address the employment-related concerns of groups not specifically
included in other programs where a need for special emphasis or employment
concerns of such groups has been demonstrated.
