3 Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) Laws Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 prohibits race, color, national origin, religion, and sex discrimination in employment Employment discrimination is also covered by Title VI if Federal financial assistance is provided for the purpose of employment, or if employment discrimination results in discrimination against program beneficiaries. Limited English Proficiency (LEP) provisions would apply in this case Titles I and V of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA) prohibit employment discrimination against qualified individuals with disabilities in the private sector, and in state and local governments 3

4 Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) Laws Must not discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, disability or age Includes all aspects of employment including, but not limited to: Hiring and firing Testing Recruitment Promotion 4
