About the No FEAR Act
The Notification and Federal Employee Antidiscrimination and Retaliation Act of 2002 (No FEAR Act), which became effective in 2003, imposes additional duties upon federal agency employers. These duties are designed to reinvigorate agencies' longstanding obligation to provide a work environment free of discrimination and retaliation. Under the Act, federal agencies must:
- submit annual reports setting forth information about their efforts to improve compliance with the employment discrimination and whistleblower protection laws and detailing the status of complaints brought against the agency under these laws.
- every fiscal quarter, post on their public websites summary statistical data pertaining to EEO complaints filed with the agency.
