EEOC (U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission)

The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) is a federal agency responsible for enforcing laws that prohibit workplace discrimination. This includes ensuring equal treatment for all employees and job applicants regardless of their race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, or genetic information. The EEOC investigates complaints, facilitates mediation, and can take legal action against employers who violate these laws. Its mission is to promote fair and inclusive workplaces, helping to create a level playing field in employment opportunities across the United States.
