In episode 49 of the Barclay Damon Live: Labor & Employment Podcast, host Ari Kwiatkowski welcomes back her Barclay Damon colleague Carolyn Marcotte Crowley for part 2 of their discussion on the Massachusetts Commission Against Discrimination (MCAD), beginning with the investigation of claims filed with MCAD. The MCAD investigator reviews submissions, requests additional information if needed, and conducts interviews, among other tactics, to determine if the treatment alleged by the complainant may constitute unlawful discrimination. An investigative conference is also usually held with the parties. Listen in for more, including the differences between the MCAD and the New York State Division of Human Rights.
