Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) refers to the principle and legal framework ensuring that all individuals have the right to be considered for employment and promotion based on their skills and qualifications, without discrimination. EEO laws prohibit discrimination on the basis of race, color, national origin, sex, disability, age, religion, and other protected categories. Employers are required to provide equal opportunity in hiring, training, compensation, and advancement practices. The goal of EEO is to promote a fair and inclusive workplace that offers all individuals an equal chance to succeed, regardless of their background or identity.
