Equal Employment Opportunity

Diversity, Inclusiveness, Talent Management and Equal Employment Opportunity

A primary function of the Departmental Office of Civil Rights, in accordance with federal civil rights law, is to ensure all DOT employees and applicants have the equal access to opportunities for employment. The DOCR Equal Employment Opportunity Programs Division carries out this important function in accordance with the belief that the Department of Transportation best serves the public when it most accurately reflects that public. As such, the office strives to promote a Department that is free of employment discrimination and embraces a spirit of diversity and inclusion.

Resources related to Equal Employment Opportunity are available on the Discrimination, Sexual Harassment, and Civil Rights Resources pages.
