Abstract: This information collection is necessary to ensure compliance with the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Equal Opportunity Act of 1972, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1972, and NASA policy. NASA strives to provide and maintain a work environment that is free of all forms of discrimination, including discriminatory harassment, as well as reprisal or retaliation for engaging in protected EEO activity. NASA also seeks to address harassing conduct at the earliest possible stage, before it becomes severe or persuasive. This information collection enables NASA to obtain information, in a structured manner, from non-federal employment applicants who believe they were discriminated against based on any of the following: race, color, religion, sex (to include sexual harassment, sex stereotyping, pregnancy, and gender identity), age, national origin, disability (mental and/or physical), genetic information (including family medical history), sexual orientation, reprisal, and class complaint.
