Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The enforcement of equal opportunity legislation is handled by both the EEOC (Equal Employment Opportunity Commission) and the OFCCP (Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs). The EEOC is responsible for enforcing federal laws that make it illegal to discriminate against a job applicant or an employee based on a protected characteristic, while the OFCCP ensures that federal contractors and subcontractors take affirmative action to ensure that applicants are employed and treated fairly, without regard to their race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, or national origin.
