Office of Equal Employment Opportunity
Philip Hepperle, OEEO Director
Mission
The Office of Equal Employment Opportunity (OEEO) offers information and assistance to all DoW OIG employees who seek a greater understanding of Federal discrimination and affirmative action laws, regulations, and policies. We seek to support the DoW OIG mission and ensure that the strengths of an engaged and talented workforce contribute to our agency’s success.
Our EEO Counselors are professional practitioners trained to guide you through the EEO complaints process. Our counselors are certified mediators trained in Alternative Dispute Resolution concepts.
DoW OIG employees are responsible for maintaining a workplace environment of mutual respect and professional courtesy consistent with EEO and personnel policies, practices, and procedures.
Vision
The OEEO is committed to supporting and enabling an engaged workforce, providing equal opportunity for all, and helping support the DoW OIG vision of “a high-performing team driving positive change.”
If you are a current or former DoW OIG employee, or an applicant for employment within the DoW OIG, and you believe you have been discriminated against or harassed at the DoW OIG based on your race, color, religion, sex (including sexual orientation, sexual harassment, and pregnancy), national origin, age (over 40), disability (including mental or physical), genetic information (including family medical history), or retaliation for engaging in protected EEO activity, you must contact us within 45 days of the alleged discriminatory event at EEO@dodig.mil.
