Discrimination Complaint Form

Discrimination Complaint Form

One of the functions of the MCCCD EEO Office is to investigate complaints of discrimination based on race, color, religion, national origin, citizenship status (including document abuse), sex (including sexual harassment and pregnancy), sexual orientation, gender identity, age 40 and over, disability, veteran status or genetic information. Under District procedures, employee complaints are investigated directly by the District EEO office.

The formal investigatory process is begun by completing and signing this Discrimination Complaint Form. Formal complaints must be filed within 300 days of the most recent alleged act of discrimination. All files and documentation relative to the investigation will be maintained in the EEO Office. If you have questions about the investigation procedure or any other concerns with regard to filing a complaint, please call 480-731-8473.

To prove unlawful or District-prohibited discrimination, it is necessary to show that under similar circumstances, you have been treated differently (less favorably) than other individuals because of your race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, pregnancy, national origin, citizenship status (including document abuse), age, disability, veteran status or genetic information; or, that you have been retaliated against for either filing a discrimination complaint or participating in a discrimination complaint investigation.

If you are an employee and feel you have been treated unfairly but the unfair treatment is NOT based on your race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, pregnancy, national origin, citizenship status (including document abuse), age, disability, veteran status or genetic information, submitting a formal complaint on this form is likely not the appropriate or most effective means of addressing your concern. Contact the HR Solutions Center for possible resolution.
