EPISODE TRANSCRIPT:
This is Lisa Broadway, Creator and Host of EEOC Micro-Learning Moments, and outreach initiative brought to you by the EEOC’s Office of Federal Operations, Federal Sector Programs, Training and Outreach Division with today’s News You Can Use:

Preventing employment discrimination from occurring is preferable to trying to deal with the consequences of discrimination. EEOC is committed to providing training and technical assistance as well as outreach and educational programs to help employers, employees and stakeholder groups understand and prevent discrimination. We believe that discrimination can be averted if employers and their employees know their legal rights and responsibilities. As part of this commitment the EEOC offers a robust no-cost outreach and education program that can help realize your goal creating a model workplace.

EEOC's no cost outreach program provides valuable information about the EEOC’s mission, the employment discrimination laws enforced by the EEOC, the national focus and priorities under the EEOC’s Strategic Plan and Strategic Enforcement Plan (SEP), and the process for filing a charge or complaint of discrimination ..

EEOC provides outreach on topics such as harassment (sexual and non-sexual), barriers to recruitment and hiring, immigrant worker-related employment topics, gender stereotyping, retaliation, pregnancy, disability, reasonable accommodation, equal pay, and many other topics that fall under the laws enforced by the EEOC.

In addition to being available to provide outreach on-site to your staff, in person or virtually.  EEOC representatives are available on a limited basis to staff information booths at events, make presentations, and participate in meetings, conferences, and seminars with employee and employer groups, professional associations, educational institutions, non-profit entities, community organizations and other members of the general public.

We are here to serve you and our Outreach and Education Coordinators want to hear from you!
