Responding to a charge from the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) can often be a complex and opaque process, fraught with red tape. To alleviate this burden, Bass, Berry & Sims labor and employment attorneys have developed a comprehensive roadmap to assist employers, in-house counsel and human resources professionals in managing EEOC charges from start to finish, while avoiding common pitfalls and mitigating potential risk exposure.

Our presenters will cover:

  • Best practices for drafting settlement agreements.
  • Drafting effective position statements and responding to requests for information.
  • Preparing for onsite investigations and requests for witness interviews.
