Are you a Federal Employee…?
Have you had an unfair or
adverse personnel action taken against you at work?
Have you been unfairly
disciplined, removed, or retired?
Have you been discriminated
against at the workplace?
Or have you been injured on the
job?
If so, you may have a claim under the Merit System Protection Board,
Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, and/or Workers’ Compensation.
The Merit Systems Protection Board
(MSPB)
is an independent, quasi-judicial agency in the Executive branch that serves
as the guardian of Federal merit systems, which are essential to ensuring
that federal employees are protected against abuses by agency management and
partisan political pressure. If you are a Federal employee who believes that
you have been subject to a personnel action that is unfair or adverse to
you, you may be able to appeal to the MSPB for adjudication.
The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission
(EEOC) is a United States federal agency charged with ending employment
discrimination in the workplace. The EEOC investigates discrimination claims
based on an individual's race, color, national origin, religion, sex, age,
disability, wage differences between men and women performing substantially
equal work, pregnancy, and retaliation for opposing unlawful discrimination
or filing a charge of discrimination. If you are a federal employee who
believes that your employment rights have been violated, you may be able to
file a charge of discrimination with the EEOC.
Workers’ Compensation
laws entitle employees
who have been injured in the course of their employment to certain benefits
from their employer. The Federal Employee's Compensation Act (FECA)
allows for the payment of benefits to most federal employees and their
dependents for work-related death or disability resulting from a personal
injury "sustained while in the performance of duty." If you are a federal
employee and have suffered a personal injury in an accident arising
out of and in the context of employment, you may be entitled to certain
benefits under FECA.
The process of filing these claims can be intensive
and confusing. The Law Office of Michael D.J. Eisenberg, Attorney and
Counselor at Law, may be able to help you with your claim by:
