This case sounds interesting.. Please give me more details about how often this has occurred, and tell me more about your workplace and this scenario, and then I will then give you more feedback.

The EEOC or FCHR is the intake agency for such cases, and you must act to begin such complaints within 300 days of the event of discrimination. [email protected]
