What this feature does and when to use it?
The EEO Compliance setting in Recruit CRM helps you meet Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) requirements by controlling the visibility of sensitive candidate information. When EEO Compliance is enabled, the Gender and Age fields are hidden throughout the system when adding, viewing, or managing candidate records. When disabled, these fields remain available as normal.
This feature is intended for Account Onwers and users responsible for managing compliance, privacy, and account-level settings.
Use this feature when:
• You want Recruit CRM to support your organization's EEO compliance requirements.
• You need to hide candidate gender and age information from recruiters and hiring teams.
• You are reviewing or updating privacy, compliance, or legal settings for your account.
How EEO Compliance Works in Recruit CRM
When EEO Compliance is enabled:
• The Gender and Age fields are hidden throughout the system.
• Users cannot enter gender or age information while creating or editing a candidate.
• Users cannot view gender or age information on existing candidate records.
When EEO Compliance is disabled:
• The Gender and Age fields become available again.
• Users can view, add, and edit this information as part of candidate records.
This helps organizations align their recruiting processes with Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) requirements by limiting access to sensitive candidate information.
