As we discussed in recent blog posts (here, here, and here), the
EEOC has been aggressive in issuing expansive subpoenas that seek
company-wide information from employers, as opposed to limiting the
subpoena to seek information about an individual charging party. In

information, even though investigation concerned a single
employee's charge of discrimination.
