Question

Aaron has been a systems analyst at a software company for six years. Although he works hard, gets favorable performance reviews, takes night classes in business management, and has applied for promotions, his coworkers always get the promotions instead. Aaron started asking his coworkers about this, and one of them said, "Don't you realize? This management will never promote someone like you." This supports Aaron's concern that he may be a target of discrimination because he is black; other talented employees are black, but no black employees have moved into management positions. Aaron decides to discuss the problem with the human resource manager. If he can't find a satisfactory solution that way, with which federal agency could he file a complaint?

A. Anti-Discrimination Federal Agency
B. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission
C. Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs
D. Uniform Guidelines on Employee Selection Procedures
E. Federal Register

Answer 1

B. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. Aaron can file a complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) if he cannot find a satisfactory solution through the human resource manager. The EEOC is the federal agency responsible for enforcing laws against employment discrimination.

Step-by-step explanation:

Aaron, who suspects he may be a victim of discrimination based on race, decides to discuss his concerns with the human resource manager. If he cannot find a satisfactory solution through this channel, he can file a complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), which is the federal agency responsible for enforcing laws against employment discrimination.

The EEOC was created by the 1964 Civil Rights Act and investigates allegations of discrimination and protects workers who file complaints against their employers. By filing a complaint with the EEOC, Aaron can seek a resolution to his issue and pursue appropriate action if necessary.
