The Federal Home Loan Banks Office of Finance is an equal opportunity employer. Our commitment to equal opportunity employment applies to all persons involved in our operations and prohibits unlawful discrimination by any employee, including supervisors and co-workers. We are committed to the following:

To prohibit discrimination against applicants and employees based on race (including traits historically associated with race, such as hair texture, hair type and protective hairstyles), color, religion, sex, pregnancy (including childbirth, lactation, and related medical conditions), national origin or ancestry, ethnic origin, age, physical or mental disability, veteran status, uniformed service member status, military status, sexual orientation, gender identity, status as a parent, marital status, genetic information (including testing and characteristics), citizenship or immigration status, or any other characteristic protected by applicable federal, state, or local law (“protected characteristics”);
To ensure that all personnel actions, including but not limited to personnel actions related to such matters as recruitment, hiring, compensation, promotions, transfers, benefits, OF-sponsored training/educational assistance, and OF-sponsored social and recreational programs, are administered in a nondiscriminatory manner without regard to protected characteristics; and
To select and engage contractors and make and administer all contractual relationships in a nondiscriminatory manner without regard to protected characteristics.

We prohibit, and shall not knowingly permit, retaliation or reprisal against a person who in good faith makes a report of prohibited discrimination, objects to such prohibited conduct, or participates in any manner in any investigation, proceeding, or hearing of alleged prohibited discrimination, including in any investigation, proceeding, or hearing conducted by a government enforcement agency. Prohibited retaliation includes, but is not limited to, termination, demotion, suspension, failure to hire or consider for hire, failure to give equal consideration in making employment decisions, failure to make employment recommendations impartially, adversely affecting working conditions or otherwise denying any employment benefit.

An employee or applicant should, as soon as possible, report any discrimination and/or retaliation prohibited by this policy statement to the individual’s supervisor, any management team member or Human Resources, or to our EthicsPoint Hotline (at 800-421-2091 or through www.ethicspoint.com).

Any good-faith report of discriminatory and/or retaliatory conduct will be investigated in a timely, thorough and objective manner. If a report of discrimination or retaliation is substantiated, appropriate disciplinary action, up to and including termination of employment, will be taken.
