Increased Transparency in Employment Discrimination Cases

New rules require the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) to vote on important discrimination cases before they go to court. Citizens will have access to information about these decisions, increasing transparency in the agency's efforts to combat workplace discrimination.
Key points
The EEOC Commission will need to vote by majority on cases involving systemic discrimination or patterns of discrimination.
Decisions to initiate costly or controversial lawsuits will require Commission approval.
Information about votes and case details will be publicly available on the EEOC website, increasing public oversight.
