How do I file an employment discrimination claim with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC)?
If you believe that you have been discriminated against in terms of employment, the first place that you should turn to is the EEOC. Most discrimination laws enforced by the EEOC require that you file a claim, or charge, with the EEOC before filing a lawsuit for discrimination against an employer. Filing an EEOC claim ensures that you will be able to file a discrimination lawsuit in the future, if you decide to do so. Furthermore, filing an EEOC charge is a relatively easy method of enforcing your right to be free from employment discrimination, since you can file an EEOC claim with your local office by completing some simple paperwork.
