What happens if the issues presented are not resolved through mediation?

If the issues are not resolved through mediation, the mediator will ask the parties to complete a mediation evaluation form. The mediator will instruct the parties that the matter will be referred back to the assigned EEO counselor. The EEO counselor will hold a final interview with the complainant. At this point, the complainant has the option of withdrawing the informal complaint or receiving a Notice of Right to File a Discrimination (NORTF) Complaint letter which affords him/her the opportunity to file a formal complaint.
