7) Explain how affirmative action differs from equal opportunity.
Equal employment opportunity is the treatment of individuals in all aspects of 
employment, hiring, promotion, training etc. in a fair nonbiased manner. It has consumed
the attention of the media, courts, practitioners and legislators.
Affirmative Action is the policy that goes beyond equal employment opportunity
by requiring organizations to become proactive with the law and correct past
discriminatory practices by increasing the number of minorities and women in specific
positions. While EEO law is largely a policy of nondiscrimination, affirmative action
requires employers to analyze their workforce and develop a plan of action to correct
areas of past discrimination. Affirmative action is acheived by having organizations
follow
specific guidelines and goals to ensure that they have a balanced and representative
workforce. This is accomplished by employing protected classes for jobs where they are
underrepresented. Affirmative action attempts to correct past practices of
discrimination
by actively recruiting minority group members.Midterm
