Department of the Air Force Equal Opportunity

The Department of the Air Force (DAF) is committed to ensuring all Airmen and Guardians are treated with dignity and respect and afforded equal opportunity and right to nondiscrimination. This ensures that the Air Force and Space Force can recruit and retain top and diverse talent to support force lethality and mission readiness. Accordingly, DAF EO policies are in place to ensure that DAF organizations conduct their affairs free from unlawful discrimination and harassment (including sexual harassment).
