The Department of Labor is urging its employees to report violations of the Trump administration’s ban on diversity, equity, and inclusion practices.
The email, sent to DOL workers late last week and reviewed by Bloomberg Law, said that “DEI-related discrimination” could include any employment action that’s motivated by an employee’s or applicant’s race, sex, national origin, or religion. It could include practices like demographic targets or quotas in hiring or promotion, excluding candidates from training or networking opportunities, and DEI trainings that “stereotype or demean employees.”

Violations of the policy should be flagged to the Office of Special Counsel, an independent watchdog agency that investigates misconduct within the federal government. Reports to the OSC carry special whistleblower protections against retaliation and the special counsel can seek remedies including back pay, damages, and disciplinary action, according to the email.

Workers can report alleged violations for up to three years under OSC’s statute of limitations, meaning they can flag instances from the Biden administration.
