Why Should You Attend
Despite the critical requirements of employers regarding policies, procedures, and treatment of employees and job applicants in the realm of protected classes, discrimination, and disparate treatment, organizations are still unclear about the objectives of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC). Although the agency’s priorities may remain the same from one presidential administration to the next, the interpretation of such priorities can lead to distinctive differences in the directions that the agency will take and which issues they will prioritize. In order to demonstrate its progress in carrying out its stated mission, the EEOC is focused on specific objectives for the remainder of the current year and the next fiscal year. By ignoring the fact that the agency has requested an additional $31.5 million fiscal budget for 2024 and $33.2 million for budget 2025. Failing to analyze the EEOC’s likely focus areas may result in employers missing the opportunity to take measurable actions now to strengthen their workplace inclusion and pay equity programs.
To shore up your company’s policies and procedures, be sure to attend this special live webinar where you’ll delve into the strategic priorities of the EEOC and learn how you can strengthen your organization’s compliance against EEOC actions.
