TRIBAL EMPLOYMENT RIGHTS ORDINANCE
OF THE WHITE EARTH RESERVATION TRIBAL COUNCIL
CHAPTER 1
DECLARATION OF POLICY
The governing body of the White Earth Indian Reservation Tribal Council believes that it is extremely
important to create training and employment opportunities for their own members and for other Indians,
and to attempt to eliminate employment discrimination against Indian people. An integral part of
attaining this goal is the structuring of employment and training opportunities on the White Earth Indian
Reservation and all other properties that fall within the territorial jurisdiction of the White Earth
Reservation Tribal Council, to provide for the hiring of qualified Indians and the training of Indians in
those job areas where there is not a sufficient number of qualified Indians to meet employment
opportunities. The policy of Indian Preference will be implemented and adhered to in contracting and
subcontracting, in accordance with the applicable provisions set forth in this Ordinance, in any and all
supplementary ordinances, and in any all rules, regulations, and/ or guidelines promulgated by the
TERO commission, in an effort to promote Tribal and Individual economic development. There exists
substantial legal support for the policy of Indian Preference in employment in Federal Statutory and
Regulatory Law. Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (42 U. S. C. 2000 et seq.) generally prohibits
discriminatory practices in a number of elements of employment on the basis of race, color, religion,
sex, or national origin. However, 42 U. S. C. 2000c – 2 (i) entitled “Preferential treatment of Indians
living on or near reservations”, provides a specific exemption as follows:
“Nothing contained in this Title (42 U. S. C. 2000 et seq.) shall apply to any business or
enterprise on or near an Indian reservation with respect to any publicly announced
employment practice of such business or enterprise under which a preferential treatment
is given to any individual because he is an Indian living on or near a reservation.”
The Indian Self Determination and Educational Assistance Act (25 U. S. C. 450 et seq.) provides, in
part, that all federal contracts or subcontracts, grants or sub grants, awarded to Indian organizations or
for the benefit of Indians shall require that, to the greatest extent feasible, (1) preference and
opportunities for training and employment in connection with the administration of such contracts or
2
grants shall be given to Indians, and (2) preference in the award of such contracts or grants shall be
given to Indian Organizations and to Indian – owned economic enterprises ( 25 U. S. C. 450e (b) ).
25 C. F. R. 271.44 sets forth the federal regulations implementing the provisions of the above identified
section of the Indian Self Determination Act requiring, to the greatest extent feasible, that preference be
given to Indians in employment and training, and to Indian Organizations and Indian – owned economic
enterprises in the award of contracts and subcontracts. The Office of Federal Contract Compliance
Program and regulations provide, in 41 C. F. R. 60 -1.5 (a) (b), a specific exemption in the context of
Indian Preference as follows:
“Work on or near Indian Reservations. It shall not be a violation of the equal
opportunity clause for a construction or non – construction contractor to extend
a publicly announced preference in employment to Indians living on or near an
Indian reservation. The use of the word “near” would include all that area where
a person seeking employment could reasonably be expected to commute to and
from in the course of a workday. Contractors or subcontractors extending such
preference shall not, however, discriminate among Indians on the basis of religion,
sex, or tribal affiliation; and the use of such preference shall not excuse a contractor
or subcontractor from complying with the other requirements contained in this chapter.”
CHAPTER 2
SHORT TITLE
This Ordinance shall be known and cited as the White Earth Reservation Tribal Employment Rights
Ordinance (WER – TERO).
CHAPTER 3
AUTHORITY
The revised Constitution of the Minnesota Chippewa Tribe, pursuant to an order approved September 12,
1963, by the Assistant Secretary of the Interior, to revise the Constitution and bylaws of the Minnesota
Chippewa Tribe and submit for ratification to the qualified voters of the reservation on November 23,
1963. This was accomplished in accordance with section 16 of the Indian Reorganization Act of June 18,
1934 (48 Stat. 984). The revised Constitution was formally approved by the Secretary
3
of the Interior or designee thereof on March 3, 1964 authorizing and empowering the White Earth
