Who do you turn to when its someone in HR who is committing a civil rights violation?

Without going into detail I work for a very large company, the sort that is big enough that if I were to sue they could bury me in litigation for years. I prefer to not sue because it's a great paying job, but the Title VII violation is ongoing with no end in sight and is clearly spelled out by the EEOC.

I know this isn't a normal question for here, but I appreciate your input.

That's a tricky situation. Money and connections equals power and if you were to sue them, you can bet your ass they'll pay probably like 4x against your lawsuit and get away with it because they obviously have so much more power.

That's what I'm afraid of, thing is I'd rather they just fix the problem than have to sue anyway because it's a stupid problem

That sucks man

Is there an company wide ombudsman to report too? Is there an hr exec above this dept?

[Asker]

There should be, there always is, I'm sure anyone of importance isn't going to be the first person a peon like me talks to

You either get legal council or ask for a transfer.

Dude you need to add context before we can answer. Cause right now you're essentially saying "they are violating civil rights because I said so.

[Asker]

The details are irrelevant, it's spelled out in EEOC guidance issued April 29 as a violation and I've got a lawyer friend who confirmed it's lawsuit-worthy

[Opinion Owner]

They are important., "because I said so" is not enough, nor is "my lawyer says so". Believe as you wish but your question is impossible to answer with out at least some detail.

There should be an OMBUDS office you can go to…
