Q: Can I reinstate EEO claim if federal settlement agreement was not honored and I didn't contact Resolutin Mgmt in 30 days
A:
Under federal EEO laws, employees who believe they have been discriminated against in the workplace can file a complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) and pursue a legal claim. In some cases, these claims are settled through a federal settlement agreement.
If you have entered into a federal settlement agreement and the terms of that agreement have not been honored, you may be able to reinstate your EEO claim. However, the process for doing so can vary depending on the specific circumstances of your case.
In some cases, federal settlement agreements include provisions for addressing disputes or breaches of the agreement. If this is the case, you may be able to file a complaint with the EEOC or other relevant agency to enforce the terms of the agreement.
If your settlement agreement does not include provisions for addressing disputes or breaches, you may still be able to pursue legal action to enforce the terms of the agreement. However, you will need to act quickly as there may be strict deadlines for taking action.
It is important to note that if you failed to contact the Resolution Management office within the 30-day period specified in your settlement agreement, you may have limited options for enforcing the agreement. However, it may still be worth consulting with an attorney or EEOC representative to discuss your options.
In general, if you believe your federal settlement agreement has been breached or not honored, you should seek legal advice as soon as possible to determine your rights and options.
