The EEOC may soon rescind its guidance on using arrest and conviction records in employment decisions, but employers should not assume the risks disappear. Learn what this potential change could mean for your background screening practices: https://bit.ly/4zigWpr #EmploymentLaw #EEOC

Andrew Ferguson, the chair of the FTC, says between Clarence Thomas running it and now, the EEOC hadn't dealt with discrimination against white men. What about white women? What about every other minority who actually are being discriminated against?

EEOC embraces white supremacy

“Have you been harassed at work for speaking English or for being too American?"

"Going forward, the EEOC is likely to pursue more cases alleging national origin discrimination against American employees and English speakers."

In 1975, women at #Cornell gave “sexual harassment” a name.

By 1980, the #EEOC recognized it as prohibited sex discrimination.

In 1986, the #SupremeCourt ruled hostile-work-environment harassment could violate Title VII. Language became law!!!

The term
"sexual harassment" is only about 50 years old, having been coined in 1975 by a group of women at Cornell University.
1975
According to Cornell's archival history, the term "sexual harassment" emerged in 1975 after university employee Carmita Wood approached activists Lin Farley, Susan Meyer and Karen Sauvigne. Wood had resigned after experiencing years of unwanted advances from a supervisor and was later denied unemployment benefits. As the women discussed what had happened to her, they realized there was no widely recognized workplace term to describe the behavior.
Cornell credits Farley with coining the phrase.
Farley publicly used the new terminology while testifying before the New York City Commission on Human Rights on April 21, 1975.
Soon afterward, the group organized a Speak Out in Ithaca that attracted more than 250 women, and Working Women United was formally established in June. The term quickly became part of a much larger conversation out workplace rights and discriminatio
coco sheshed. rocks
1980
The EEOC issued federal guidelines recognizing sexual harassment as a form of prohibited employment discrimination.
1986
The landmark Supreme Court case
Meritor Savings Bank v. Vinson established that sexual harassment resulting in a hostile work environment could violate Title VTI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, helping shape workplace protections that remain significant today.

The nation's largest movie theater chain will pay $56,000 and take other steps to settle claims that it illegally forced out an employee with #CerebralPalsy after two decades on the job. #disabilities #discrimination #EEOC #AMCTheatres

The words didn’t exist, but the harm did.

In 1975, women at #CornellUniversity gave a name to what countless women had endured in silence.

Naming #sexualharassment changed the conversation, strengthened protections, and gave women language to fight back.

#EEOC
#TitleVII
When the 1964 Civil Rights Act became law the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission was formed. The statute & regulations were intended to resolve workplace discrimination within 180 days. It has never been fully funded. We could have had mediation and resolution in 6 months.

Does your employer discriminate? It’s about to get harder to find out. The #EEOC was created to enforce #civilrights laws in workplaces. Under Trump, the agency will stop collecting data on gender, race & ethnicity used to identify systemic injustices. More from the @19thnews.org here bit.ly/4xJbXxL
