FAQ

Evidence takes several forms. It includes your testimony, which is the very first evidence gathered by EEOC. It also includes written materials such as evaluations, notes by your employer, letters, memos, and the like. You will be asked to provide any documents you may have that relate to your case.

You should have evidence and proof that you in fact complained and reported the discriminatory conduct. The best way to do this is to put it in writing and have some type of confirmation that you submitted it. Employees who merely “call” the HR rep and have a verbal conversation alone are at a great disadvantage.

Typical outcomes if discrimination is found An employer may be required to hire, reinstate, or promote an applicant/employee. In addition, an applicant or employee may obtain an award of monetary damages.

Report discrimination to a local Fair Employment Practices Agency (FEPA). If the discrimination breaks both a state and federal law, the FEPA will also send your complaint to the EEOC. Use the EEOC's directory of field offices to find the FEPA near you.

The answer depends on your claims and willingness to pursue litigation. If your claims are strong and you are invested in the litigation process, it can be very “worth it” to feel you are standing up for accountability, getting compensation for your injuries, and incentivizing the company to change its ways.

Discrimination at work is more than just an annoyance. It can disrupt your entire life. In New York, employees who face ongoing workplace harassment often wonder if they can sue their employers for the emotional distress and anxiety it causes. The good news is that you can, in most cases.

If you feel that your employer intentionally harmed you in any way, it's possible to bring a personal injury lawsuit against them. As a general rule, it is important to be sure that the injury was intentional on the employer's part. If there was no intent on the employer's part, a lawsuit would not be an option.

Examples of Employment Discrimination Failure to hire. Harassment. Quid pro quo: Conditioning employment or promotion on sexual favors. Hostile Work Environment: Continuous actions and comments based on protected characteristics that create an uncomfortable and hostile workplace.
