The Anchorage Equal Rights Commission presented the findings of their annual report to members of the Anchorage Assembly during a work session on Friday.
Only 68 claims of discrimination on the job were made in 2020, and in 2021 there were just 57 claims.
A human rights attorney who formerly served on the Alaska State Commission for Human Rights, Kim is also concerned that a lack of public awareness about what the Equal Rights Commission does may be affecting the reported claims. “I’m a millennial, and this is the first time in my generation’s existence where we have actual market power,” Dunbar said.
“We don’t just want to be the hammer that comes down as enforcement, but we also want to be the educators that allow people to understand what the law is so they can avoid it, because I think most businesses want to be successful, they don’t want to lose employees and they don’t want to be part of any enforcement process. They’re motivated, and perhaps they just need our help,” Kim said.
