Equal Opportunity Employment Law

Although it is most widely known for its regulations regarding race, equal opportunity employment law encompasses a number of discriminatory possibilities. First, equal opportunity employment law deals with hiring practices. According to Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, employers may not discriminate against a person based on race, ethnicity, religion, color, sex, or national origin. However, equal opportunity employment law also addresses discrimination once an applicant has been hired. The Equal Pay Act of 1963, commonly known as the EPA, states that women and men must be paid equally for equal work.

Another area of equal opportunity employment law is the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 (ADEA), which works to prevent hiring practices that discriminate on the basis of age. An employer may not discriminate against a person because of his or her age, and must instead base their candidacy based on ability. Further, Titles I and V of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA) prohibit discrimination based on a person’s disabilities, including both physical and mental disabilities.

A qualified PEO can advise you on compliance with equal opportunity employment law. Not only will they help you avoid potential issues during hiring and firing of employees, but they can also provide guidance throughout an employee’s time at your company, as well as offer general counsel. Further, many employee leasing companies offer handbooks and other literature you can use for yourself and distribute among employees to discourage discrimination and instate a clear code of conduct, as well as spread general knowledge on the subject.
