WASHINGTON — The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) today announced that the newest edition of the federal sector Digest of Equal Employment Opportunity Law (EEO Digest) is now available online.
The EEO Digest, a quarterly publication prepared by the EEOC’s Office of Federal Operations (OFO), features a wide variety of recent Commission decisions and federal court cases of interest. This particular edition includes summaries of noteworthy decisions issued by the EEOC on subjects such as Attorneys’ Fees, Compensatory Damages and Remedies. It also includes an article addressing national origin discrimination.
“Given the ethnically diverse nature of the current workforce, it is important for agencies to recognize that all employees and applicants, no matter what country they are from or ethnic group they belong to, are entitled to a workplace free from discrimination,” said Carlton M. Hadden, director of the EEOC’s Office of Federal Operations (OFO). “This article will assist stakeholders in their efforts to prevent national origin discrimination.”
The Digest includes hyperlinks so stakeholders can easily access the full decisions that have been summarized.
The summaries are neither intended to be exhaustive or definitive as to the selected subject matter, nor are they to be given the legal weight of case law in citations. In addition to the quarterly Digest, Commission federal sector decisions are available on the EEOC’s website.
The public may also receive federal sector information updates and news items via GovDelivery and Twitter. The EEOC enforces federal laws prohibiting employment discrimination in the public and private sectors. Further information about the EEOC is available online at www.eeoc.gov.
