Office of Equal Employment Opportunity

Mission

The Office of Equal Employment Opportunity (OEEO) is responsible for upholding the Civil Rights Act of 1964 as amended, and other federal laws, statues, regulations, directives, and policies that mandate all individuals’ rights to equal employment opportunity regardless of reprisal, race, color, religion, sex, parental status, national origin, age, disability, genetic information (including family medical history), political affiliation, military service, or other non-merit-based factors. The mission of OEEO is to promote an inclusive work environment that ensures equal employment opportunity and fosters a professional culture that empowers individuals so they can participate and carry out the Agency’s scientific and programmatic mission to their fullest potential.

Vision

The hallmark of every great organization is its capacity to attract and retain a world-class workforce. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is committed to doing all it can to ensure that the Agency’s workforce environment is free from discrimination and dedicated to the principles of fairness for all its employees.
