In Fiscal Year 2018, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) received 76,418 discrimination cases. Think about it, we have 200 work days a year – so this equates to over 480 a day and nearly 48 every hour. Sheer numbers indicate that it’s just a matter of time before a discrimination charge crosses your desk. So, this is your chance to get the information you need now to be prepared. Your first reaction to receiving a charge of discrimination follows the stages of grief – shock, denial, and anger. Some get depressed because they think they may get in trouble. Then reality sets in and you reach the acceptance and action stages. The fact is discrimination charges are now a part of the risk of doing business. Proper preparation is the key to winning charges of discrimination. Properly responding to a discrimination charge is never fun.
