They were recommended to me and I am glad they represent me. My Daddy told me many years ago that NO Insurance is any better than the Agent(s) that represent you. You’ll are the BEST, from the person who answers the phone on to the agents themselves.If I ever need any help I can call Linda in Cordele, and my problem is solved. Thanks!!!

2011 EEOC Statistics Reveal Disturbing Trends Every Employer Should Know

[ 0 ] February 16, 2012

The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), the government agency responsible for enforcing Title VII, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA), the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act (GINA) and the Equal Pay Act (EPA), has released fiscal year 2011 enforcement statistics.

Total charges were 99,947 for 2011, setting a new record. Despite the record number of charges, the EEOC, for the second year in a row, resolved more charges than it took in. Total resolutions increased seven percent over 2010. The Commission touts a ten percent decrease in inventory for the first time since 2002. Approximately, 78,136 charges are still pending.

As far as litigation in 2011, the agency filed 300 lawsuits resulting in $91 million for claimants. The number of lawsuits filed has increased for the past three years.

Retaliation claims were the most numerous at 37,334. Race discrimination charges followed with 35,395 charges. The other three most frequently cited allegations were sex, disability and age discrimination.

Only 245 claims were filed under GINA in 2011. However, 2011 was the first full fiscal year for enforcement of GINA. GINA prohibits discrimination based on genetic information and family medical history.

The EEOC’s enforcement of ADA claims produced the greatest increase in monetary relief last year. Administrative relief for ADA claims increased almost 35.9 percent from $76.1 million in 2010 to $103.4 million in 2011. Back impairments, followed by other orthopedic impairments, depression and diabetes, took the lead for the most frequently cited impairments. “Private Sector Bias Charges Hit All-time High,” www.eeoc.gov (Jan. 24, 2012).
