Equal employment opportunity (EEO) principles and diversity management are at the core of any successful agency. The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), Office of Civil Rights and Diversity (OCRD) is an independent office that reports to USAID’s Administrator. OCRD’s goal is to promote and foster a diverse and inclusive workplace, free of discrimination, where all employees are valued and can contribute to their fullest potential.
OCRD consists of two sections: the Dispute, Intake, and Resolution (DIR) section and the Diversity Management and Outreach (DMO) section. OCRD’s DIR section addresses allegations of discrimination in the workplace. DIR manages the EEO complaint process, the Alternative Dispute Resolution Program, the Reasonable Accommodation process, and the Anti-harassment Program. If you believe you have been discriminated against, please contact OCRD within 45 calendar days of the alleged discriminatory act.

OCRD’s DMO section has overall responsibility for among other things the following: providing diversity and inclusion training to USAID’s workforce; managing the special emphasis programs; and reviewing and analyzing race, sex, national origin, and disability workforce demographics.

OCRD recognizes that EEO principles and diversity management are not only critical to employees; both are also vital to drive innovation and forge strong relationships with stakeholders, which is fundamental to the success of USAID’s mission and initiatives.
