FEDERAL COURT WORKPLACE ISSUES<br />
In accordance with Judicial Conference policy, each court in the judiciary has implemented a<br />
Fair Employment Practices (FEP) Program. Most court programs provide both informal and<br />
formal procedures for resolving disputes pertaining to EEO and anti‐discrimination rights,<br />
worker adjustment and retraining rights, occupational safety and health protections, and<br />
claims based on statutory rights that most judiciary employees have under the Family and<br />
Medical Leave Act and the Uniformed Service Employment and Reemployment Rights Act.<br />
The court=s FEP program is applicable to employed chambers staff, including law clerks. The<br />
court=s plan usually is available on the court=s intranet web site or from the court human<br />
resource/personnel specialist. Additionally, each circuit has an Employment Dispute<br />
Resolution Coordinator who may be consulted and the Fair Employment Practices Office of<br />
the Administrative Office also is available for assistance.<br />
