EEOC Litigates LGBT Discrimintion

imageRecent EEOC Litigation Regarding Title VII & LGBT-Related Discrimination
(Last Updated by EEOC 3-01-16)

Overview
The Commission adopted its current Strategic Enforcement Plan (SEP) in December of 2012. The SEP includes “coverage of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender individuals under Title VII’s sex discrimination provisions, as they may apply” as a top Commission enforcement priority.

Consistent with this priority, the Commission’s General Counsel formed an LGBT working group that provides advice and input to the Agency’s litigators on developing related litigation vehicles. This work group also coordinates internal initiatives and policies, trains internal staff, and conducts outreach with external stakeholders.

Mumford Law has recently filed litigation on behalf of a gay client discriminated against on basis of gender stereotyping.
