The Nashville Area Office is open Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. – 4:30 p.m. (Central Standard Time). The office is closed on federal holidays and during inclement weather.

If you believe you have been subjected to employment discrimination, please access the online EEOC Public Portal at https://publicportal.eeoc.gov/.  You will be asked to answer a series of questions about your employment situation, and where applicable, be directed to schedule an interview.  If you are unable to schedule an appointment through the Public Portal, call 629-236-2240 and leave a message (include your name, phone number, and EEOC Inquiry number), and someone will contact you to schedule an appointment.  If you would like an earlier intake appointment, you may revisit the scheduling calendar to check for cancellations.

Intake interviews are scheduled every day except Wednesdays. Although walk-ins are accepted, scheduling an interview is strongly recommended, and individuals with appointments and individuals whose statute of limitation are about to expire will be given priority. Individuals who come into the office without an appointment will be screened for appropriate follow-up.
