HR Ignored My Accommodation Requests - Is This Normal?
After I filed my EEOC charge and rejected a settlement offer, my former employer's HR continued harassing me about benefits and equipment even though I was already terminated.
They demanded payment for insurance premiums I'd already paid (I have bank statements proving it), enforced equipment return policies selectively (gave me 22 days when they gave another terminated employee 8-9 months), and kept creating administrative obstacles months after my employment ended.
The harassment peaked on what would have been my return-to-work date - 21 days after I rejected settlement. That timing felt intentional.
Is post-termination retaliation a thing? Can companies legally continue harassing you about administrative issues after termination just because you filed EEOC charges?
I documented everything and included it in my EEOC rebuttal as evidence of ongoing retaliation, but it felt designed to exhaust me into dropping my case.
Has anyone else experienced continued harassment AFTER termination? How did you handle it? Did you include it in your EEOC case?
Looking for others who've dealt with this because it feels like they're weaponizing administrative processes to punish me for exercising my legal rights.
