The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) announced the latest edition of its federal sector Digest of Equal Employment Opportunity Law, which is available online at http://www.eeoc.gov/federal/digest/xxiv-3.cfm .
This quarterly publication, prepared by the EEOC's Office of Federal Operations (OFO), features recent agency decisions and federal court cases of interest. It also includes a special article entitled, Retaliation: An Evolving Area of the Law.
The summer 2013 edition of the Digest contains a sampling of summaries of noteworthy decisions selected by OFO from among the volume of decisions issued by EEOC each fiscal year, including topics such as:
- Federal Sector EEO Complaint Processing
- Attorneys' Fees
- Compensatory Damages
- Findings on the Merits
- Remedies
- Sanctions
- Settlement Agreements
- Stating a Claim
- Summary Judgment
- Official Time
While these summaries are not intended to be exhaustive or definitive as to their subject matter, and may not be given the legal weight of case law in citations, they are a good source of relevant information.
