Diversity and Equity Programs
This program area provides leadership
to the University community in formulating and implementing
organization-wide diversity initiatives to enhance equity
and inclusiveness in the workplace. Our Diversity and Equity
Programs provide consultation with managers about the development
of diversity initiatives, designing/facilitating diversity
workshops and learning experiences; and coaching with managers
about problematic cross-cultural interactions in their work
environment.
Disability Compliance
The primary focus of the Disability Compliance
section of OIE to provide for prompt and equitable resolution
of complaints from faculty, students, staff and the public
alleging discrimination based on disability. OIE works in
collaboration with the Disability Management System Office
and other units to ensure compliance with the American with
Disabilities Act and the Rehabilitation Act. OIE also provides
training to the Duke community related to the ADA and Rehab
Act.
Equal Opportunity/Affirmative
Action
Duke University's equal opportunity policy
is an important part of our compliance with federal and
state laws and regulations and more importantly, guides
us in our institutional commitment to diversity and fairness.
The Equal Opportunity and Affirmative Action (EO & AA)
programs offers university-wide guidance on Title VI and
VII of the Civil Rights Act, and Title IX of the Education
Amendments Act and the Vietnam Era Veterans Readjustment
Assistant Act. The office serves as the University's liaison
the federal government in matters related to contract compliance
concerning equal employment opportunity. EO/AA develops
the University's Affirmative Action Plan, oversees it implementation,
reviews employee recruitment, hiring and other personnel
actions. EO/AA also offers technical assistance, consultation
and resources for individuals and departments.
Harassment Prevention and Gender

administers Duke's Harassment Policy. This program is responsible
for implementing and monitoring Duke's Harassment Policy
and provides advice, assistance and education to individuals
and groups on issues concerning harassment prevention and
complaint handling. Additionally, this program area addresses
gender equity and Title IX issues in the workplace and educational
contexts.
