This week, host Ari Kwiatkowski delves into answering questions about the US Equal Opportunity Commission (EEOC) with guest Maureen Kielt, director of the EEOC’s Buffalo Local Office. Over the course of the next few episodes, Ari and Maureen—a former business owner herself—will talk about everything EEOC, from making a claim to whether (and how) they investigate and the options for settling claims via mediation along the way. This first episode on the topic covers the basics: sharing what laws and acts the EEOC (a federal agency) enforces, how the EEOC decides which complaints to investigate, and how the EEOC works with the New York State Division of Human Rights. Listen in for more details.
