Do you believe that you are the victim of discrimination in the workplace. Here’s what you should do.
You only have 180 days from the last day on which the discrimination took place to file a claim, so move fast; six months can go by much quicker than you might think!
You must file your complaint with the U.S. Equal Opportunity Commission.
Your complaint must be in writing, and should contain:
Your name, address and phone number.
The name and address of the agency or person you believe discriminated against you
How, why and when you believe the discrimination took place
The types of discrimination involved in the case, e.g., race, sex, disability, pregnancy, age, etc.
The names of any people involved in the discrimination, including any non-participating witnesses
Your signature and your representative’s signature, if applicable, as well as the date
Any other information or documentation that would help the reader understand the complaint.
The best solution is to work with a lawyer who already knows the law.
While you do not need a lawyer to file your initial discrimination complaint having one and their experience may be the difference between winning and losing your case.
