Former Jones Day Attorney Tapped For Position at the EEOC
The Trump administration has nominated Sharon Fast Gustafson to fill the vacant position of general counsel of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.
Above the Law reports that Gustafson spent four years at Jones Day before becoming a solo practitioner in 1995.
The GC’s position at the EEOC has been vacant since December of 2016.
“The top litigator position has broad discretion in deciding what Title VII cases to pursue, and, as such, will take the lead in determining the Trump administration’s stance on such hot button issues as sexual harassment and the gender pay gap,” writes Above the Law editor Kathryn Rubino.
