Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The EEO Act does not guarantee zero discrimination in the workplace, but rather prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, or national origin. Discrimination based on other factors, such as age or disability, may still occur but can be addressed by additional legislation such as the Age Discrimination in Employment Act or the Americans with Disabilities Act.
