Federal employees facing sexual harassment and other forms of discrimination are currently blocked from collectively seeking relief before the federal government’s anti-discrimination agency, some workers alleged in a lawsuit filed Tuesday. She is a member of a certified class-action case currently before EEOC alleging widespread sexual harassment against women that management failed to address. “This notification applies to all class cases in the federal sector, including those alleging disparate impact,” the judge said. “While the class case remains suspended, women employed at FCC Pollock continue to suffer daily sexual harassment that materially and adversely affects their working conditions, without a forum in which to obtain relief,” they said. The commission has, through regulation, created a comprehensive procedure for processing and adjudicating both individual and class complaints of such discrimination.
