Diversity Office

 

Our Mission

The Diversity Office supports the Laboratory’s mission to do world-class science by providing a pipeline of qualified, diverse candidates; by recommending to the Director policies and procedures that ensure (1) equitable treatment and opportunities for all employees, (2) an environment free from harassment; and (3) encourage respect for individual differences.

Equal Employment Opportunity

Equal Employment Opportunity Laws are anti-discrimination laws.  The laws that impact employment practices are in title VII of the Civil Rights Act.  In accordance with these laws, employment decisions involving hiring, promotions, and compensation will be based on qualifications and performance regardless of an individual’s race, color, religion, gender, national origin, marital status, sexual orientation, citizenship, age, disability, veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by law or executive order.

As a Federal Contractor Brookhaven National Laboratory is required to follow federal regulations regarding Affirmative Action Compliance for minorities, women, and individuals with disabilities.  The Office of Federal Contract Compliance is the Federal Agency responsible for enforcing these laws.
