U.S. Equal Employment
Opportunity Commission
EEOC has revised its “Equal Employment Opportunity is the Law” poster. This new version reflects current federal employment discrimination law, including the Americans with Disabilities Act Amendments Act of 2008 and the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act of 2008. The revised poster also includes updates from the Department of Labor.
Get information about Titles I and V of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and pandemic planning in the workplace, including established ADA principles that are relevant to questions frequently asked about workplace pandemic planning.
In order to make information about the EEOC and the laws we enforce more user-friendly and easier to navigate, we have completely redesigned our website.
On January 29, 2009, President Obama signed the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act of 2009, which clarifies that a pay discrimination claim is timely as long as the employee received at least one discriminatory paycheck within the filing period.
