The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) has adopted its new strategic plan for fiscal years 2022-2026, the agency announced on Aug. 22. The major points of the plan aim to increase the public’s access to the EEOC and increase training and resources for investigations.

As HR professionals, it’s important to stay up to date on the latest changes to the EEOC’s strategic plan. This plan has the potential to affect the way we do business, and it’s important to be aware of the changes that are coming.

The EEOC’s strategic plan, which was developed in consultation with Congress, outlines the agency’s goals and objectives for the next five years. The plan focuses on four key areas: enhancing the public’s access to the EEOC, strengthening enforcement capabilities, increasing the effectiveness of the EEOC’s public outreach, and improving the quality of the EEOC’s internal operations.

The plan calls for the EEOC to increase its public access by providing clear and easy-to-understand information about the EEOC’s process and services. It also calls for the agency to expand its outreach efforts to reach more employers, employees, and individuals who may be affected by discrimination.

In addition, the EEOC plans to strengthen its enforcement capabilities by increasing its investigative staff, hiring more attorneys and investigators, and providing additional training and resources for investigations. The EEOC also plans to strengthen its mediation services, create an online dispute resolution platform, and develop new tools and resources for employers and employees to use in resolving disputes.

The plan also calls for the EEOC to increase its public outreach efforts by developing new materials and programs, and creating partnerships with community and faith-based organizations. The EEOC also plans to improve the quality of its internal operations by increasing the efficiency of its processes and updating its technology.
