Equal Employment Opportunity
Equal Employment Opportunity Laws are anti-discrimination laws.
The laws that impact employment practices are in title VII of the
Civil Rights Act. In accordance with these laws, employment
decisions involving hiring, promotions, and compensation will be
based on qualifications and performance regardless of an
individual’s race, color, religion, gender, national origin, marital
status, sexual orientation, citizenship, age, disability, veteran
status, or any other characteristic protected by law or executive
order.
As a Federal Contractor Brookhaven National Laboratory is
required to follow federal regulations regarding Affirmative Action
Compliance for minorities, women, and individuals with disabilities.
The Office of Federal Contract Compliance is the Federal Agency
responsible for enforcing these laws.
