Answer to Question 1

The EEOC enforces federal discrimination laws. Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 makes it illegal to discriminate against someone on the basis of race, color, religion, creed, national origin, or sex. Other laws relate to pregnancy and age discrimination, equal pay, employees with disabilities, and citizenship or immigration status. Harassment is unwelcome conduct based on a protected class factor.

The U.S. Department of Labor administers some federal employment laws. The FLSA establishes minimum wage, overtime pay, record-keeping, and child labor standards. The OSHA helps businesses reduce workplace deaths, injuries, and illnesses. The FMLA provides leave for specified family and medical reasons. The WARN requires notice 60 days in advance of certain plant closings and mass layoffs. Other laws protect persons who have served in military services and prevent employers from using lie detector tests, with certain exemptions.

Operations that contract with the federal government or serve as subcontractors must complete an EEO-1 report relating to discrimination; an affirmative action plan that establishes guidelines for recruiting, hiring, and promoting women and minorities; and a VETS-100 form applicable to special disabled, Vietnam-era, and other protected veterans employed.
