EEOC Rules

Meaning

EEOC Rules refer to the regulations and guidelines enforced by the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, an agency responsible for interpreting and enforcing federal laws prohibiting employment discrimination. These rules ensure fair treatment in all aspects of employment, including hiring, firing, promotions, harassment, training, wages, and benefits. Their primary objective is to prevent unlawful discrimination based on protected characteristics such as race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, or genetic information.
