Can the Department of Justice assist an individual with a discrimination complaint that the individual may have against a federal employer?
A. 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.
