Understanding the EEOC Process: The EEOC enforces federal laws prohibiting employment discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, or genetic information. The EEOC process begins with the filing of a charge of discrimination and can involve mediation, investigation, findings, and potential litigation.
Key Stages of the EEOC Process
- Filing a Charge: Employees who believe they have been discriminated against must first file a charge with the EEOC.
- Mediation: The EEOC may offer mediation as an alternative to an investigation, which is a voluntary and confidential process.
- Investigation: If mediation is not successful or not opted for, the EEOC investigates the charge.
- Determination: Upon completing the investigation, the EEOC makes a determination on the charge.
- Litigation: If discrimination is found, the EEOC will attempt to settle the charge. If settlement fails, the EEOC or the charging party may file a lawsuit.
