Help us, Help you: EEOC asks for Input on Regulation Reforms

In a piece of bureaucratic master craftsmanship, the EEOC has asked for input on possible regulatory reform by soliciting "Public Comment on Plan for Retrospective Analysis of Significant Regulations." From what we can discern from the press release, the agency is taking a serious look at stream-lining and improving the regulations covering the enforcement of six employment nondiscrimination laws:

• Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended;
• the Equal Pay Act of 1963, as amended;
• the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, as amended;
• Titles I and V of the Americans with Disabilities Act, as amended;
• Sections 501 and 505 of the Rehabilitation Act, as amended; and
• Title II of the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act.

We will work to provide collective input to the EEOC on behalf of Hinshaw & Culbertson LLP clients.
