Course Overview

Charge of discrimination is a signed statement asserting that an organization engaged in employment discrimination. It requests EEOC to take remedial action.

In the fiscal Year 2021; The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) received 67,448 discrimination cases. Think about it, we have 200 workdays a year – so this equates to over 337 per day or over 42 every hour. Sheer numbers indicate that it’s just a matter of time before a discrimination charge crosses your desk. 

Get the information you need NOW to be prepared.

Your reaction to receiving a charge of discrimination follows the stages of grief – shock, denial, and anger, … some get depressed because they think they may get in trouble. Then reality sets in and they reach the acceptance and action stages.

The fact is discrimination charges are now just one of the risks of doing business. Proper preparation is the key to winning charges of discrimination. Properly responding to a Charge of Discrimination is never fun.

  • Review of Discrimination Charges Filed with the EEOC.
