Equal Employment Opportunity Office

The Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) Office is responsible for the overall management of the EEO Program. OJP is committed to providing equal employment opportunity for all employees and applicants on the basis of merit and without regard to race, color, religion, sex, age, national origin, sexual orientation, and physical or mental disability. The objective is to promote full realization of equal employment opportunity through a continuing affirmative employment program that aims to eliminate discrimination based on factors irrelevant to job performance. Within the agency, every effort will be made to ensure that all employment decisions and personnel actions, including recruitment, selection, training, promotion, transfer, and benefits are administered in conformance with Federal statutes and regulations governing equal employment and personnel management.

The EEO Program consists of three components. All three must work together to make our place of employment one that is fair and diverse. The components are:
