Frequently Asked Questions
What is the time limit to file an employment discrimination claim in Virginia?
In Virginia, you must file a charge with the EEOC or the Virginia Council on Human Rights within 300 days of the alleged violation. This deadline is shorter than the federal 180-day limit for some claims. Missing this deadline can bar your case.
Does Virginia have its own anti-discrimination law for private employers?
Yes, the Virginia Human Rights Act (VHRA) prohibits discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, and other traits. It applies to employers with 5 or more employees. This law provides additional protections beyond federal law.
