Navigating the EEOC Charge Process:
What Employers Need to Know
Receiving an EEOC charge can raise immediate questions: What happens next? How should the organization respond? What information should be preserved and gathered? And what mistakes can create unnecessary risk?
Join ViaVision Group’s Employee Relations Academy for a practical walkthrough of the EEOC charge process from an employer’s perspective. We’ll explain what happens after a charge is filed, discuss how EEOC investigations typically unfold, and share practical considerations for developing a clear, well-supported position statement.
Participants will also learn about common employer missteps, documentation, credibility considerations, retaliation risks, and best practices for navigating the process effectively.
Whether you work in HR, Employee Relations, compliance, legal, or organizational leadership, this session will provide a clearer understanding of the EEOC charge process and practical steps your organization can take when a charge arrives.
