What is the purpose of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC)?

To enforce the Americans with Disabilities Act
To enforce the Fair Labor Standards Act
To protect the rights of employees from discrimination
To protect the rights of employers from discrimination

The correct answer is: To protect the rights of employees from discrimination

The EEOC was created to help enforce federal laws that protect employees from discrimination in the workplace. This includes discrimination based on factors such as race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, or genetic information. Therefore, options A, B, and D are incorrect because they only mention specific laws or apply to only one side of the employment relationship, whereas the EEOC's primary purpose is to protect all employees from discrimination.
