Previous Revision

The contents of this document do not have the force and effect of law and are not meant to bind the public in any way. This document is intended only to provide clarity to the public regarding existing requirements under the law or agency policies.

Any individual who believes that his or her employment rights have been violated may file a job discrimination complaint with the EEOC. This includes applicants, employees and former employees, regardless of their citizenship or work authorization status. You do not have to be a full-time employee in order to file a complaint. Part-time, seasonal, and temporary employees also may file a job discrimination complaint with the EEOC.

In addition, an individual, organization, or agency may file a job discrimination complaint on behalf of another person in order to protect that person's identity.
