What Can I Expect To Happen In An Eeoc Investigation?
After a charge is filed, you may be asked to provide a statement of position responding to the allegations in the charge. You may also be asked to provide documents or information related to the subject of the EEOC`s investigation. Additionally, the EEOC may ask to visit your worksite or to interview some of your employees. Cooperation with EEOC requests for information is helpful to the EEOC in investigating charges. When an employer refuses to provide information, or does not do so in a reasonably timely manner, the EEOC may issue a subpoena. You may retain an attorney to represent you during the EEOC`s handling of the charge but you are not required to do so.
