With the world becoming more mobile and diverse\, diversity has taken on new importance. The EEOC can help small business owners! The EEOC is the federal government agency that enforces the federal laws against employment discrimination based on race\, color\, religion\, sex\, national origin\, disability\, age\, and genetic information. These laws also prohibit retaliation (punishment) for opposing or reporting discrimination or participating in a discrimination investigation or lawsuit.
\n
\nPreventing discrimination makes good business sense. Complying with the law may increase employee productivity\, retention\, and morale and limit legal expenses. You may even be entitled to tax benefits for hiring individuals with disabilities or making your business accessible to individuals with disabilities!
