3. All charges submitted for credit under this contract shall be completed by the <br /> Contractor between October 1, 1999 and September 30, 2000, as follows: <br /> a. All charges will be evaluated and determinations made in accordance <br /> with the theories of discrimination in employment as developed under <br /> Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended the Age <br /> Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, as amended, and the <br /> Americans with Disabilities Act, as appropriate. <br /> b. Investigation and resolution of individual charges pursuant to this <br /> contract shall be conducted in a manner designed to effectuate relief for <br /> the charging party and shall be carried out as expeditiously as possible. <br /> C. All final actions, litigation and intake services for which payment is <br /> requested under this contract will be processed and awarded contract <br /> credit, in compliance'with the State-and Local Handbook, the ADA <br /> Technical Assistance Manual for ADA charges, and the Worksharing <br /> Agreement. <br /> d. Contract credit submissions will include final dispositions of charges (i.e. <br /> final actions). When administrative appeal rights exist, the final <br /> disposition of a charge occurs only after the time for appeal has expired <br /> or the appeal has been processed to completion. In cases where the <br /> administrative appeal has been processed, the date of the notice of*the <br /> final result of the appeal is the operative date. This applies in all cases <br /> where an administrative appeal is provided, whether the case is <br /> administratively resolved, dismissed, decided, or when no cause is <br /> found. For Title VII charges only, the fifteen day period during which <br /> Substantial Weight Review may be requested and/or the period during <br /> which a Substantial Weight Review is conducted is not considered for <br /> the purposes of computing the operative date of the final disposition of a <br /> charge. <br /> e. Contract credit submissions that are not final dispositions will include: <br /> 1) Charges to be litigated by the Contractor where EEOC receives copies <br /> of the complaints bearing confirmation of the filing dates with the Court, <br /> or other appropriate official confirmation of the filing dates of the <br /> complaints; 2) Certain types of charges that must be transferred to the <br /> EEOC that are not final actions by the Contractor, as specified in the <br /> State and Local Handbook; and 3) Intake services by the Contractor <br /> where EEOC accepts for processing a charge initially filed but not <br /> jurisdictional with the Contractor, or any other FEP Agency, and for <br /> which the Contractor has prepared all charge intake documentation, <br /> including a complete affidavit, as required by the EEOC. In addition, <br /> contract credit for intake services will be given when EEOC accepts for <br /> processing a charge initially filed with but not.jurisdictional with the <br /> Contractor, and the Contract Monitor determines and justifies that there <br /> is a need to service charging parties who live at great distances from an <br /> EEOC or State FEP Agency office. <br /> C-4 <br />
