Delaware Employment Discrimination Charge Preparation Worksheet
DELAWARE EMPLOYMENT DISCRIMINATION CHARGE PREPARATION WORKSHEET
Before you use this: Contact the Delaware Office of Anti-Discrimination and complete its official intake questionnaire. The Office may prepare a formal charge for your signature. Sending the intake questionnaire is not the same as filing a charge. Under 19 Del. C. § 712(c)(1)a., a concise, written, signed, verified charge must be filed within 300 days after the alleged unlawful employment practice or its discovery. Contact the Office promptly if the deadline may be close.

Employment documents govern the relationship between a company and its workers, from offer letters and employment agreements through handbooks, performance reviews, and separations. Done right, they set clear expectations, protect against wrongful termination and discrimination claims, and give both sides a record to rely on. Done poorly, they invite lawsuits, agency complaints, and costly disputes.
