The EEOC Mediation Program

The Equal Employment Opportunity Commision (EEOC) has a highly successful program to resolve charges through voluntary mediation at the agency level.  I am priviledged to serve  as a mediator in this program on a contract basis with the EEOC St. Louis District Office. The EEOC also offers Universal Agreements to Mediate under which an employer agrees to mediate all eligible charges.  These agreements may expedite the mediation process.  (An employer or the charging part may still opt out of mediaton in a particular case even though such an agreement is in effect.)  For further information on the EEOC programs, please see www.eeoc.gov/mediate or feel free to contact me.
