Section R10-3-200 - Charges filed by or on behalf of aggrieved persons or by a member of the Division; submission of information

A. A charge that any person has engaged in or is engaging in an unlawful employment practice within the meaning of the Act may be filed by or on behalf of a person claiming to be aggrieved. A charge on behalf of a person claiming to be aggrieved may be filed by any person, agency, or organization. A charge shall be deemed to have been filed by or on behalf of a person claiming to be aggrieved if received from the Commission. The charge need not identify by name the person on whose behalf it is filed. The person filing the charge, however, must provide the Division with the name and address of the named person on whose behalf the charge is filed. During the Division's investigation, Division personnel shall verify the authorization of such charge by any named person on whose behalf such charge is filed. The Division shall keep such information confidential and, in transmitting information to the Commission in regards to such charge, shall not disclose such information to the Commission except on condition that the identity of the person on whose behalf the charge is filed be kept confidential, pursuant to the Commission's regulations governing confidentiality. If this condition is violated by the Commission, the Division may decline to honor subsequent requests for such information. A person filing a charge on behalf of an aggrieved person shall be considered a party to the Division's proceedings with respect to receiving notice at each stage in which notice is sent to parties.

B. The Division may receive information concerning alleged violations of the Act from any person. Where the information discloses that a person is entitled to file a charge with the Division, assistance will be rendered in the filing of the charge. A member of the Division in accordance with these rules, may file a charge.
