Dataset Highlight: Closed Discrimination Complaint Cases in Iowa
Iowa Data Portal
This dataset contains information on discrimination complaint cases processed by a local agency, the Iowa Civil Rights Commission or the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) in Iowa. Data includes type of closure, dates when case was opened and closed, and basis of complaints received. This dataset supports a detailed interactive report providing information on the work of the agency. The report is automatically updated when the dataset is updated.
