U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission

The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) is a federal agency that enforces laws against workplace discrimination. It aims to ensure fair treatment for all employees by investigating complaints about unfair hiring, firing, promotions, and other employment practices based on race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, or genetic information. The EEOC provides guidance, mediation services, and legal enforcement to help individuals protect their rights and promote diversity in the workplace, fostering a fair and inclusive environment for all workers.
