@nanciekaraitis8471 2 ай бұрын

@@ShaggyRogers1you obviously don't understand the difference between what each agency handles under federal law in the work place. This woman is correct. It's an EEOC issue and they should have had someone from the EEOC there as well at this hearing. Those on Capital Hill know this so I find the argument with her from Kennedy a bit misplaced. She did offer to put pressure on the EEOC to look into it but these employees have to file their official complaints with the EEOC first. I am curious to know if that has been done yet or if this is something that has just been done anonymously on this website they were talking about. Every work place should have EEOC and DOL posters up somewhere that fully explain workers rights and who to complain to on both state and federal levels. Regardless, the FDIC cronies' behavior is disgusting and actions should be taken against these pigs.
