Can the Department of Justice assist an individual with a discrimination complaint against a federal employer?
No. Congress has not given the Department of Justice authority to pursue charges of employment discrimination against departments or agencies of the federal government. The procedure for filing a charge of employment discrimination against a department or agency of the federal government is to contact an equal employment opportunity officer at that agency who is authorized to receive and investigate such a charge. The personnel office at the agency in question can provide you with further information about filing a charge of employment discrimination. Return to index . . .
