The EEOC has been ordered by a federal court to turn over its own background check policy to an employer whom it is suing for a criminal background check policy that allegedly had a disparate impact on black employees.
The employer had moved to compel to produce “[a]ll documents that constitute, contain, describe, reflect, mention, or refer or relate to any policy, guideline, standard, or practice utilized by the EEOC in assessing the criminal conviction record of applicants for employment with the EEOC.” In granting the employer’s motion to compel, the court concluded that the EEOC policies may be admissible or relevant and the employer did not have the accept the EEOC’s say-so that they weren’t.
