Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO)

To file a complaint, you must contact an EEO Counselor within 45 days of the alleged discriminatory action (or within 45 days of the date on which you become aware of the discrimination). Counselors are trained to work with management and employees in an effort to resolve the compliant informally. During EEO counseling, you have the right to request that your name remain confidential.

If the Counselor is unable to resolve the complaint, you will be provided with a written statement of your rights, including the right to file a formal complaint of discrimination. At any time during the EEO process, you will have the right to request Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR). The most common form of ADR is mediation, during which the two parties come together in an effort to reach a mutually-satisfactory resolution of the complaint, with the assistance of a trained Mediator.

If you would like to contact an EEO Counselor, or if you have any questions regarding the EEO process or Alternate Dispute Resolution, please contact the Office of Civil Rights and Diversity at (202)586-2218.
