Reading Room Document

Whether, under existing law, employers covered by both Title VII of the Civil Rights Act and Executive Order 10925 must post each of the "equal opportunity" notices required by Title VII and that Executive Order, respectively.

The document is a letter discussing the legal requirements for employers to post "equal opportunity" notices under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act and Executive Order 10925. The conclusion reached is that employers covered by both Title VII and the Executive Order must post both notices, and it would be possible to consolidate them. The questions presented for review include whether employers must post both notices and whether it would be possible to consolidate them, either through amending the Executive Order or by agreeing upon a single form of notice that satisfies both requirements.
