The Notification and Federal Employee Anti-discrimination and Retaliation (No Fear) Act of 2002, Public Law 107-174

On May 15, 2002, President George W. Bush signed the Notification and Federal Employee Anti-discrimination and Retaliation Act (No Fear Act). The No Fear Act increases the accountability of Federal departments and agencies for acts of discrimination or reprisal against employees.

Section 301 of the No Fear Act requires each Federal agency to post summary statistical data pertaining to complaints of employment discrimination filed against it by employees, former employees and applicants for employment under 29 C.F.R. Part 1614, "Federal Sector Equal Employment Opportunity." The specific data to be posted is described in section 301(b) of the No Fear Act and at 29 CFR 1614.704.
