This is closely aligned with anti-discrimination principles, EEO policies give the equal right and opportunity for all people to be considered for work and promotions regardless of their race, religion, sexual orientation or gender, disability status, or any other protected attributes under the legislation.

Organizations must ensure to provide equal opportunities to all their employees as it is required by law; failing to offer same opportunities and not discriminating their staff on any grounds will not only cause the organisation’s reputation, it might also affect its ability to expand into new territories and securing new contracts which could potentially cause them an increase in their revenue.
