123:1-49-39 Right to appeal to Ohio civil rights commission.

(A) Under Section 4112.05(B) of the Ohio Revised Code, an employee or applicant may file a charge affidavit with the Ohio Civil Rights Commission within six (6) months after the alleged unlawful discriminatory practices are committed. Under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 an employee or applicant may file a charge with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission within one hundred and eighty days after the alleged unlawful employment practice occurred. Filing a charge under this regulation does not in any way limit the rights of an individual to file a charge with the Ohio Civil Rights Commission or the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.

(B) An agency shall notify an employee or applicant of his or her right to file a charge affidavit with the Ohio Civil Rights Commission, and of the six (6) month time limit for filing, and with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, and of the one hundred and eighty day time limit for filing in any final action on a complaint under 123:1-49-13, 123:1-49-15, 123:1-49-27, 123:1-49-28. The Division shall notify an employee or applicant of his or her right to file a charge and of the time limits for filing, in any decision under 123:1-49-36.
