What is the E.E.O.C.?
The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) is an agency of the federal government, created by the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (Title VII). The purpose of the EEOC is to interpret and enforce federal laws prohibiting discrimination.
In our years dealing with hiring issues in the small business world, we have observed that many small business Employers tend to ignore the specifics of the law - they are too busy handling the day-to-day emergencies and priorities. Many are not aware of the importance to respect the EEOC regulations - simply because they are badly, if at all, educated on the anti-discrimination regulations.
Testing Application:
Below is a general outline of how you want your selection process to be administered - specifically regarding your testing procedure:
Employer Best Practices for Testing and Selection
- Employers should administer tests and other selection procedures without regard to race, color, national origin, sex, religion, age (40 or older), or disability.
- Employers should ensure that employment tests and other selection procedures are properly validated for the positions and purposes for which they are used. The test or selection procedure must be job-related and its results appropriate for the employer's purpose. While a test vendor's documentation supporting the validity of a test may be helpful, the employer is still responsible for ensuring that its tests are valid under UGESP.
- If a selection procedure screens out a protected group, the employer should determine whether there is an equally effective alternative selection procedure that has less adverse impact and, if so, adopt the alternative procedure. For example, if the selection procedure is a test, the employer should determine whether another test would predict job performance but not disproportionately exclude the protected group.
- To ensure that a test or selection procedure remains predictive of success in a job, employers should keep abreast of changes in job requirements and should update the test specifications or selection procedures accordingly.
- Employers should ensure that tests and selection procedures are not adopted casually by managers who know little about these processes. A test or selection procedure can be an effective management tool, but no test or selection procedure should be implemented without an understanding of its effectiveness and limitations for the organization, its appropriateness for a specific job, and whether it can be appropriately administered and scored.
- For further background on experiences and challenges encountered by employers, employees, and job seekers in testing, see the testimony from the Commission's meeting on testing, located on the EEOC's public web site at:http://eeoc.gov/eeoc/meetings/archive/5-16-07/index.html.
