Equal Employment Opportunity Data Posted Pursuant to the No Fear Act: Appeals

Pursuant to the Notification and Federal Employee Antidiscrimination and Retaliation Act of 2002 (the No Fear Act), Pub. L. 107-174, the Commission is posting the statistical data pertaining to appeals of complaints of employment discrimination filed by employees, former employees, and applicants for employment under 29 CFR Part 1614.

The following table contains the data required by Sections 1614.706(b)(1), (b)(2), and (b)(3) concerning: the number of appeals filed in such fiscal year; the number of individuals filing those appeals; and, the number of individuals who filed two or more of those appeals.

The following table contains the data required by Section 1614.706(b)(4) concerning the number of those appeals raising each of the various bases of alleged discrimination. Because appeals may contain multiple bases, the total number of bases in any fiscal year may exceed the total number of appeals received in that year. In addition, the bases alleged in appeals filed in a given year are not always ascertained and reported in that same year. This occurs in part because the lag time between the filing of an appeal and the receipt of the complaint file from the agency, and because the basis(es) alleged in any particular appeal cannot be identified until an attorney has reviewed the matter while adjudicating the appeal. Accordingly, the Commission does not obtain complete details regarding the bases alleged until the matter is resolved, often in a subsequent reporting year. For these reasons the Commission has updated the number of appeals raising each of the various bases of alleged discrimination for FY 2009 – 2012, and will do so for future reporting periods.

The following table contains the data required by Section 1614.706(b)(5) concerning the number of those appeals raising each of the various issues of alleged discrimination. Because appeals may contain multiple bases and issues, the total number of issues or bases in any fiscal year may exceed the total number of appeals received in that year. In addition, the issues alleged in appeals filed in a given year are not always ascertained and reported in that same year. This occurs in part because the lag time between the filing of an appeal and the receipt of the complaint file from the agency, and because the issues alleged in any particular appeal cannot be identified until an attorney has reviewed the matter while adjudicating the appeal. Accordingly, the Commission does not obtain complete details regarding the issues alleged until the matter is resolved, often in a subsequent reporting year. For these reasons the Commission has updated the number of appeals raising each of the various issues of alleged discrimination for FY 2009 – 2012, and will do so for future reporting periods.
