EEOC Wants to Stop Collecting Data Used to Fight Discrimination The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) has proposed a change to its data collection practices that could significantly impact anti discrimination efforts in the US workforce.
According to reports, the EEOC wants to stop collecting data on racial disparities in hiring practices, which has been a crucial tool for identifying and addressing discriminatory behavior in the workplace.
A history of racial disparities in hiring practices is well documented. Studies have consistently shown that people of color face significant barriers to job acquisition.
