EEO (Equal Employment Opportunity)

Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) is the principle that all individuals should have fair and non-discriminatory access to employment opportunities, regardless of characteristics like race, gender, age, religion, disability, or other protected statuses. Its goal is to promote a workplace culture where hiring, advancement, and treatment are based on merit and qualifications, not bias or prejudice. EEO laws require employers to provide a level playing field, prevent discrimination, and address inequities, ensuring everyone has an equal chance to succeed and contribute in their workplace.
