The EEOC (Equal Employment Opportunity Commission) is responsible for enforcing Federal Law which makes it illegal to discriminate against job applicants or employment, based on race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability or genetic information. It is also illegal to discriminate against a person because a person complained about discrimination, filed a charge of discrimination or participated in an employment discrimination investigation or lawsuit.

It is important for every business to know the laws and take the necessary steps to prevent discrimination in your business. Doing so will encourage harmony and cooperation among your employees and will make your place of business a much more comfortable place to work.
