Equal Employment Opportunity
Talent Management and Equal Employment Opportunity
The Department of Transportation (DOT) is committed to providing employment and growth opportunities to all Department of Transportation employees. To provide equal opportunity for applicants and DOT employees, the DOT carries out programs on behalf of all employees, and in particular for women, Hispanics, and people with disabilities.
Additionally, our office ensures that DOT employment practices are consistent with the important purpose of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and all civil rights laws that mandate the elimination of all employment discrimination.
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.
