Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO Policy)
Generally, employers that do not receive government contracts are not required
to include an equal employment opportunity (“EEO”) statement in their employee
handbooks and personnel policy manuals. However, most employers add one
voluntarily to communicate their commitment to basing employment decisions on
performance and ability and to show their compliance with federal, state, and
local laws prohibiting employment discrimination.
This policy discusses equal opportunities in employment, explains
discrimination, and stresses that applicable federal and state discrimination
laws protect applicants and employees. The policy also explains the reporting
and retention requirements of the EEO-1, VETS-100, and Affirmative Action.
