Federal Civil Rights Agency Votes to Scrap 60 Year Old Workforce Diversity Reporting Rule The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) has dealt a devastating blow to efforts to combat workplace discrimination by voting to scrap a 60 year old requirement for private sector employers to submit workforce demographic reports.
The move, pushed through by the Republican majority on the commission, is a stark reminder of the ongoing erosion of civil rights protections in the US.
The EEOC's decision has far reaching implications, particularly for women and minorities who have long relied on these reports to track their progress and advocate for change.
