EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY POLICY
Winthrop University recognizes that employees are the essential resource of the institution. Winthrop is committed to the principles of equal employment.
It is the policy of the University that all personnel related decisions be made without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age (40+),
protected disability, veteran status or any other characteristic protected under applicable federal, state or local law. This policy applies to all personnel
actions including, but not limited to, recruitment, hiring, classification/compensation, benefits, promotions, transfers, layoffs, recall from layoffs and
educational, social or recreational programs of this institution.
In addition, Title II of the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act of 2008 (GINA) protects applicants and employees from discrimination based on
genetic information in hiring, promotion, discharge, pay, fringe benefits, job training, classification, referral and other aspects of employment. GINA also
restricts employers’ acquisition of genetic information and strictly limits disclosure of genetic information. Genetic information includes information about
genetic tests of applicants, employees, or their family members; the manifestation of diseases or disorders in family members (family medical history); and
requests for or receipt of genetic services by applicants, employees, or their family members.
The University has developed an Equal Employment Opportunity Plan to assist in achieving the goal of equal employment opportunity for all. The
President of the University is committed to this effort and is ultimately responsible for the development and implementation of equal employment policies.
Specific authority and responsibility for administering the Equal Employment Opportunity Plan has been delegated to the Associate Vice President for
Human Resources, who administers the plan in collaboration with the Vice President for Academic Affairs and their respective staff members. Full
cooperation of all administrators, managers, supervisors and other employees in achieving the goal of equal employment is expected.
No one will be subjected to, and the University prohibits, any form of discipline or retaliation for reporting, pursuing, or cooperating in the investigation of
complaints of employment discrimination that are consistent with this policy.
Equal employment opportunity is an integral part of the mission and purpose of the University. The Winthrop University Equal Employment Opportunity
Plan is available for review in the Office of Human Resources, 303 Tillman Hall, Winthrop University, Rock Hill, SC 29733.
