Attorneys for Choosing the Correct Procedure

Options for Disciplinary Action Cases
With federal employment, there is typically strict protocol that you must follow when dealing with disciplinary action cases. For instance, you may have a limited amount of time to file your appeal as well as a specific collection of documents that you must provide. It is also important to appeal to the correct agency. Some agencies that handle unfair disciplinary action cases include:
- Office of Special Counsel
- Equal Employment Opportunity Commission
- Merit Systems Protection Board
- Office of Personnel Management
In some cases, if your disciplinary action came directly from your employing agency, you may have to first appeal the decision with them before taking your case to another agency.
