Disciplinary Actions 

Under existing laws, USDOT retains 

the right, where appropriate, to 

discipline a USDOT employee who 

engages in conduct that is inconsistent 

with Federal Antidiscrimination and 

Whistleblower Protection laws up to 

and including removal from Federal 

service. If OSC initiates an investigation 

under 5 U.S.C. 1214 according to 5 

U.S.C. 1214(f), USDOT must seek 

approval from the Special Counsel to 

discipline employees for, among other 

activities, engaging in prohibited 

retaliation. Nothing in the No FEAR Act 

alters existing laws, or permits an 

agency to take unfounded disciplinary 

action against a USDOT employee, or to 

violate the procedural rights of a 

USDOT employee accused of 

discrimination. 

Additional Information 

For more information regarding the 

No FEAR Act regulations, refer to 5 CFR 

part 724, as well as the appropriate 

office(s) within your agency (e.g., EEO/ 

civil rights offices, human resources 

offices, or legal offices). You can find 

additional information regarding 

Federal antidiscrimination, 

whistleblower protection, and 

retaliation laws at the EEOC Web site at 

http://www.eeoc.gov and the OSC Web 

site at http://www.osc.gov. 

Existing Rights Unchanged 

Pursuant to section 205 of the No 

FEAR Act, neither the Act nor this 

notice creates, expands, or reduces any 

rights otherwise available to any 

employee, former employee, or 

applicant under the laws of the United 

States, including the provisions of law 

specified in 5 U.S.C. 2302(d).
