Equal opportunity employment

Equal opportunity employment means that everyone has the same chance at getting a job, regardless of their race, gender, religion, age, or any other factor. This means that companies don't pick who they hire based on these factors, but instead look at their qualifications and skills. Companies want to give everyone a chance so they hire people in an equal way, meaning they don't discriminate based on these factors.
