EEOC Shifts Stance on Diversity Programs
The EEOC, under new chair Andrea Lucas, is shifting to a more conservative approach to civil rights enforcement. This includes launching federal inquiries into corporate diversity programs, warning that initiatives related to hiring, promotions, or marketing might come under scrutiny. Lucas believes that if a DEI program or any employee initiative takes action based on race or sex, it is unlawful. This transformation is expected to face opposition from civil rights advocates and Democrats, but with a Republican majority on the commission, no company is safe from potential enforcement actions, subpoenas, or litigation.
