The
Notification and Federal Employee Anti-Discrimination and Retaliation
Act (No Fear Act)

President George W. Bush signed the No Fear Act on May 15, 2002.
The purpose of the No Fear Act is to increase federal agencies
accountability regarding discriminatory acts and retaliation filed
with them. The No Fear Act of 2002 requires agencies to post certain
statistical information on their public websites concerning employment
discrimination complaints. Agencies are also required to post current
fiscal year information on a cumulative basis with quarterly updates.
