An Equal Opportunity Employer is a term used to label an employer as fair and
just when it comes to hiring women and men for the same positions and same
pay. In the USA, it is illegal for a potential employer to discriminate based
on sex, age, religious affiliation, disability, or race. The EQUAL
OPPORTUNITIES COMMISSION has this mission statement: "...The USA Civil
Rights Act of 1964 prohibits employment discrimination on the basis of race,
color, religion, sex, or national origin..."
