NOTE: The source of Employee Demographic data is an employee self-reported system in our City of Asheville ERP software. Employees self-identify for Race and Ethnicity. The Race and Ethnicity terminology and language are determined by the U.S. Census Bureau. Employees self-identify for Gender. Our current system only allows for binary gender identification.
