In the same year that the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission received the largest number new discrimination charges in its 46- year history, the agency also reduced its current charge backlog by 10 percent - the first such reduction in almost a decade. In fiscal 2011, which ended Sept. 30, the EEOC received a record high 99,947 new charges of discrimination. The agency ended with 78,136 pending charges, a decrease of 8,202 charges, which was 10 percent over the year before. The agency announced it also delivered more than $364.6 million in monetary benefits through administrative enforcement for employees who filed discrimination claims.
Criminal history background checks are unremarkable - anyone who has ever filled out an application form for a job has been asked for authorization to check their criminal history, and indeed such checks, in addition to weeding out inappropriate or violent candidates, can also minimize the risk of "negligent hiring" claims. Last fall the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission filed a discrimination lawsuit against a company that routinely rejected job applicants based on their credit history, and because they had types of criminal charges or convictions, actions the EEOC says were not job-related or justified by business necessity.

The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission has issued updated guidance on employers' use of criminal background checks in making employment decisions. According to EEOC officials, the new guidance, the first since the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1991, which codified Title VII disparate impact analysis, was designed to take into account how changes in technology have made criminal history information much more accessible to employers.
