Equal Employment Opportunity Commission – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission amends its regulations designating certain State and local fair employment practices agencies as certified designated agencies. The designation permits the Commission to accept the findings and resolutions of State and local fair employment practices agencies in regard to most cases processed under contract without individual, case-by-case substantial weight reviews by the Commission. Publication of this amendment effectuates the designation of the following agencies as certified designated FEP agencies: Georgia Commission on Equal Opportunity; North Carolina Civil Rights Division, Office of Administrative Hearings; North Dakota Department of Labor; Lee County Office of Equal Opportunity; City of Tampa Office of Human Rights; Palm Beach County Office of Equal Opportunity; Madison Equal Opportunity Commission; St. Paul Department of Human Rights.

The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC or the Commission) is seeking comments on proposed revisions to its Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) fee schedule. The updated schedule of fees reflects increases in the direct costs incurred by the Commission in responding to requests for records.
