Federal Affirmative Employment: Progress of Women and Minority Criminal
Investigators at Selected Agencies (Letter Report, 04/25/95,
GAO/GGD-95-85).

This report examines the career progression of women and minorities in
the criminal investigator occupation--the most populous of the law
enforcement positions.  GAO limited its analysis to four federal law
enforcement agencies: the FBI; the Drug Enforcement Administration; the
Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms; and the Inspection Service of
the U.S. Postal Service.  GAO discusses (1) whether the representation
of women and minorities in the criminal investigator occupation has
improved since 1982, (2) whether the career progression of women and
minority criminal investigators is similar to that of white male
criminal investigators, and (3) what reasons there may be for any
different career progression patterns.
