What happens when EEOC offers to mediate my job discrimination complaint?
After you file a job discrimination complaint with the EEOC, we may offer you and your employer an alternative way to solve your complaint, called “mediation.” Mediation occurs before your complaint is investigated by EEOC and provides you and your employer with an opportunity to discuss the issues that led to your complaint in order to resolve the matter quickly. If you and your employer are not able to reach a solution during mediation, your job discrimination complaint is returned to the EEOC for investigation.
