Equal Employment Opportunity Programs
EEOP is currently updating our website. Some content may be temporarily unavailable during this process. We appreciate your patience and understanding.
An EEO complaint is appropriate when an employee or applicant believes they have been discriminated against on the basis of race, color, sex, national origin, age (40 or older), genetic information, disability, religion, or reprisal for prior protected EEO activity.
Federal regulations require aggrieved individuals to contact an EEO Counselor within 45 calendar days of the alleged discriminatory event or the date they became aware of the action. Failure to meet this deadline may result in dismissal of a complaint.
To initiate an EEO complaint, please visit the EEO Complaints page.
NOTE: If you are seeking general information or clarification of EEO procedures, please contact us at eeop-questions@dodea.edu. This mailbox is not a substitute for initiating timely EEO Counselor contact.
To request a Reasonable Accommodation (RA),visit the RA page or contact us at ra@dodea.edu.
