Good article. Follow the steps to the "t". In these economic times, employers will probably see more and more EEOC cases coupled with unemployment cases. AMEN! Good article.

If you disclose that kind of information to others, you may have more problems. I agree with Mike about the privacy protection.

Notifying possible witnesses that a named employee has filed a complaint would be at best premature and at worst a legal violation. I would only say that investiogator X from the Y department (or from the firm of Z, or from the EEOC etc) will be investigating certain matters on approx dates and all employees who may be interviewed are encouraged (or expected) to cooperate with the investigator, and not to share those discussions with others; for questions contact AB in the personnel (or legal) office. That way only those with a need to know (i.e. those actually interviewed by the investigator) will learn that Sally filed the complaint. In some interviews, even that may not be disclosed if the questions are about general practices etc. re: step 6 in the article — in some public jurisdictins (don’t know about private industry) the fact that an employee has filed a complaint is privacy-protected.
