EEO

EEO is short for Equal Employment Opportunity. This relates to employer-employee relations and cases involving alleged discrimination in the hiring or employment process. EEO cases are often brought before the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, a federal agency that is part of the Department of Labor. The Commission conducts administrative hearings and issues rulings about cases. Some cases end up going to the federal courts. When this occurs, the Commission may be a litigant in the lawsuit, or represent the interests of one of the parties along with his or her lawyer.
