BE IT ORDAINED by the Council of the City of Bakersfield, as follows: SECTION 1. FINDINGS, It is the desire of the Council of the City of Bakersfield to promote the public welfare of all the citizens of said City regardless of race, religion, color, ancestry, national origin or place of birth~ by encouraging equal employment opportunity to all citizens, and to lessen and prevent discrimination against anyone on the grounds herein mentioned~ by preventing or prohibiting such dis- crimination wherever possible, thereby encouraging all citizens to reach the full development of their individual potentialities and to provide adequately toward the economic security of their families and the education of their children and to make their contribution to the industrial, business and civic life of this City. And it is the conclusion of this Council that discrimination in employment by reason of race, color, religion, ancestry, national origin or place of birth tends to impose substantial financial burdens upon the public revenues which must be used for the relief and ~_melioration of the condition of those affected by such discrimination wherever it exists, and that by encouraging widespread employment among all persons willing to work, such will tend to lessen disease~ delinquency and crime when due to poverty or lack of employment.

If the employer in fact makes occupational qualifications the basis of his determination, proof of discrimination must include proof that complainant is better qualified than the individual selected, promoted or retained. (b) (1) For any employer, employment agency, or labor organization to use any form of application for employment or membership containing questions or entries regarding race, color, religion, ancestry, or national origin; (2) For any employer, employment agency or labor organiza- tion to require of any applicant for employment or membership any information concerning race, color, religion, ancestry or national 3. origin~ (3) It shall be permissible and lawful for an employer~ subsequent to the employment of any individual~ to require~ secure and record any such information concerning an employee~ including a photograph of su.ch ~uployee~ if such inquiries are reasonably necessary to the operation of the employerts firm or business and such information is not used for the purpose of violating this ordinance. The right to require~ secure and record such information shall be subject to the power of the Commission to impose limitations thereon in appropriate cases. (c) It shall be permissible and lawful~ however~ for a prospective employer of any individual or groups of individuals~ to require and secure a photograph~ sketch or moving picture of such prospective employee or e~ployees~ when any hiring is to be done without personal interview and the nature of the employment depends mainly upon physical appearance~ personality~ demeanor and manner~ or ability of such prospective employee or e~ployees to make personal public appearances for entertain~ent or lecture purposes~ whether on stage~ television or by other visual means. (d) For any e~ployer~ e~ployment agency or labor organization to announce any policy or to cause to be published or circulated any notice~ information~ or advertisement relating to employment or member- ship which indicates any preference~ limitation~ specification~ or discrimination because of race~ color~ religion~ ancestry~ national origin or place of birth~ (e) For any ~ployment agency to fail or refuse to classify properly or refer ~or e~ployment or otherwise discriminate against any individual because of race~ color~ religion~ ancestry~ national origin or place of birth.

In cases of alleged discrimination against individuals~ evidence of a pattern of employment or quota system in existence subsequent to the effective date of this ordinace shall be admissible.

The burden of proof shall be upon the person asserting the unique nature of the employment, membership or service to establish such fact. No employer shall be liable for any discrimination practiced by a labor organization unless such employer participates in or co- operates with such acts of discrimination by such labor organization. The fact that the employer agrees to secure all new employees from a labor organization or agrees to give the labor organization an 5. opportunity to fill vacancies in employment or the fact that the employer agrees with the labor organization to recognize prior rights to employment based on seniority or previous employment in the industry does not~ of itself~ constitute participation or co-operation by the employer in any discrimination practiced by the labor organization. No labor organization shall be liable for any discrimina- tion practiced by an employer unless such labor organization partici- pates in and cooperates with such acts of discrimination by such employero The fact that the labor organization agrees to provide all new employees for an employer ~r that there is an agreement which gives the labor organization an opportunity to fill vacancies in employment or the fact that the labor organization recognizes prior rights to employment based on seniority or previous employment in the industry does not of itself constitute participation or cooperation by the labor organization with the employer in any discrimination prac- ticed by the employer~ provided these seniority rights are applied equally by the labor organization to a~ll members on a unifo~n non- discriminatory basis. Notw~thstanding any other provision of this ordinance~ it shall not be an unlawful employment practice for any employer~ employment agency~ or labor organization to require citizenship or residence qualifications~ or both~ as a condition of employment~ membership~ or servic'e on a uniform~ nondiscriminatory basis.
