Fair Employment Practices Agencies (FEPAs)

Fair Employment Practices Agencies (FEPAs) are government or designated organizations responsible for promoting equal employment opportunities by enforcing laws that prohibit discrimination based on race, gender, age, disability, or other protected characteristics. They investigate complaints, ensure organizations comply with anti-discrimination rules, and work to create fair workplace environments. Essentially, FEPAs serve as watchdogs to help protect workers from unfair treatment and ensure everyone has an equal chance to succeed in employment.
