RESPONSE

In your complaint, you state that you were discriminated against based on your disability

and race when you were terminated on June 18, 1987 and were denied worker's compensation

and health insurance benefits. Your EEOC charge was dismissed because it was filed "too long

after the date(s) of the alleged discrimination to file your charge." 

1. When did the alleged discriminations occur? Give dates.
