During the past few years there has been an increase in the number of claims filed at the EEOC. There has also been an increase in the number of discrimination suits based on national origin, religion, and age bias. Recent settlements against Ford Motor Company and Johnson Higgins also show that the monetary threat to employers is on the rise. This increase in claims and settlements coincides with changes that have been made to the legislation and guidelines that the EEOC follow. In 2003, the EEOC added new and additional guidelines on national origin discrimination. It is increasingly important that managers review and understand EEOC guidelines about discrimination. With a thorough understanding managers can limit, mediate, and possibly prevent discrimination claims within their organisation.
