National Leadership in
EEO Compliance Consulting

Dr. James Fadigan is one of America’s foremost authorities on anti-discrimination practices in the workplace  He helped draft the Title VII provisions of the original 1964 Civil Rights Act and its subsequent revisions.  Later, as a member of an ad hoc committee, he assisted the Equal Employment Opportunity Coordinating Committee (EEOCC) with the writing of the "Uniform Guidelines On Employee Selection Procedures."  These guidelines established the accepted standards for establishing the validity of all U.S. assessment instruments.

Later, Dr. Fadigan accepted the challenge of implementing these Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) guidelines into, at that time, the nation's largest corporation - American Telephone and Telegraph (AT&T).  While at AT&T, Dr. Fadigan was directly responsible for the company's Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) programs.  These programs virtually established the criteria used for the hiring, firing, transferring and promoting of AT&T's 960,000 work force.  During this period he developed and tested one of the country’s first "Structured Interviewing" models which became AT&T’s standard interviewing model. 

At the end of his six-year career with AT&T, Dr. Fadigan founded a consulting firm, Fadigan & Associates, (F&A).  F&A successfully implemented comprehensive Employee Selection and Development Programs in more than 300 major U.S. companies.  Many of the innovative programs developed by F&A during this period literally established national standards.

Dr. Fadigan has served on two Presidential Commissions related to workplace practices.  He also has taught at several universities and is widely published.
