EEO and affirmative action
What is Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) and
Affirmative Action (AA)?
Many of us have heard of the terms Equal
Employment Opportunity and Affirmative Action.
But how many of us truly understand the
principles of EEO and AA and why they exist.
Perhaps there are those who think that EEO and AA
mean the same. Equal Employment Opportunity
prohibits discrimination against anyone. It
attempts to ensure that all applicants,
males-females and all races have a fair
opportunity in a hiring process, in competing for
promotions, and equal access to
training/professional development opportunities.

As for Affirmative Action, it is a remedy to
address past practices of discrimination.
Affirmative Action was designed to level the
playing field for females, individuals with
disabilities and minorities. The minorities group
includes Blacks, Hispanics, Asians and American
Native Indians.

What is Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) and
Affirmative Action (AA)?
Affirmative Action does not mean that managers
are expected to hire unqualified applicants.
Additionally, Affirmative Action quotas are not
automatic. The implementation of quotas must be
ordered by a court of law. A true quota situation
has rarely occurred across the United States.
Affirmative Action is usually implemented as a
voluntary goal-oriented program. In all hiring
situations, EEO principles should be applied to
every vacancy being filled. Remember, while there
is a difference between EEO and AA, they do have
one thing in common they are both about fairness!
