Get it Right the First Time: Accepting, Dismissing, and Framing EEO Claims

A surprisingly large number of agency dismissals are overturned by the EEOC each year – and a remand years after the events in question can equal big problems when it comes to the investigation. This class covers all you need to know on when to accept, when to dismiss, and how to frame EEO claims.

Wednesday, oct. 30: Get it Right the First Time: Accepting, Dismissing, and Framing EEO Claims, Part I

Sometimes your agency has a responsibility to dismiss an EEO complaint. However, you do so at your own risk. In the first of this two-day class, we tackle the basis for dismissing claims, review the legally protected categories and how to spot and frame disparate impact, hostile work environment, and reasonable accommodation claims.

Thursday, Oct. 31: Get it Right the First Time: Accepting, Dismissing, and Framing EEO Claims, Part II

The second day of this class focuses on reprisal, timeliness principles, and much more. And before the training concludes, you’ll participate in an exercise to refresh what you’ve learned on the topic.

Learning objectives

  • Identify claims that do not fall under the EEO process.
  • Analyze contractor EEO complaints.
  • Draft legally sufficient acceptance and dismissal documents.
