EEOC Unveils Equity Action Plan

EEOC Unveils Equity Action Plan

1 minute read

The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) recently unveiled its equity action plan. The plan aims to improve outreach and access to underserviced communities and combat systemic racial discrimination.

The equity plan has goals to:

  • Improve access to the EEOC’s charge filing process for those workers who have limited digital resources or live in rural areas
  • Engage with more employers, researchers, and worker and civil rights organizations to support diversity, inclusion, accessibility, and equity
  • Improving access to EEOC’s resources for people whose primary language is not English, or those with limited digital or reading proficiency
  • Continue to develop EEOC’s data collection to support enforcement and empower people to exercise their civil rights

The EEOC’s plan is in accordance with President Biden’s executive order to advance racial equity and provide support for underserved communities. Each federal agency is required to develop a plan to address barriers in programs and policies.
