EEOC Reports That They Recovered Record High Amount of $513 Million in Compensation for Victims of Discrimination in 2022

The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) recently released its 2022 Annual Performance Report, revealing that it collected a record-breaking $513 million in compensation for victims of discrimination. This amount was collected from 65,000 charges of discrimination, which resulted in 91 lawsuits in federal court. The majority of these charges were based on allegations of sex and retaliation discrimination, followed by disability, race, national origin, age, and religion.


Most importantly, discrimination charges were up almost 20% year-over-year.
