Attendees will learn about the EEOC's role in enforcing federal anti-discrimination laws. They will also gain insights into the protections provided to job applicants and employees under federal law, which prohibit discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex (including pregnancy, transgender status, and sexual orientation), national origin, age (40 or older), disability, and genetic information.

The session will also explore the proactive benefits of partnering with the EEOC as a mediator in workplace disputes. Attendees will learn how the commission's mediation services can foster a constructive dialogue, mitigate potential legal conflicts, and promote a culture of inclusivity.

The event is aimed at HR professionals, business leaders, and legal advisors seeking to create fair and compliant workplaces while navigating the complexities of employment law.

The session will run from 8:30 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. on Tuesday, January 21. Registration is now open on the Pittsburgh Human Resources Association's website.
