The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission has released a fact sheet about discrimination against American workers. The EEOC is not mandating that employers post the new fact sheet or its recent guidance on DEI-related discrimination. However, these documents signal the EEOC’s enforcement priorities and evolving interpretations of nondiscrimination laws. Therefore, employers should review their workplace policies and be on the watch for a revised EEOC “Know Your Rights” poster. Employers should ensure that their organization’s policies and practices align with Title VII and other nondiscrimination laws. They also should communicate these developments to managers so that everyone understands the latest expectations.
