As a remedy , the Judge recommended that a status quo ante remedy be ordered , in addition to ordering the Respondent to rescind the change in the procedure for obtaining an EEO package , to bargain with the exclusive representative upon request , and to post a notice . There are approximately 45 classifications that fall into preestablished EEO clerical categories . The Judge credited several other witnesses who indicated that an employee had to provide information to the EEO director prior to receiving an EEO Package . In Steinmetz v. United States Postal Service , [ 15 ] the Commission noted that a provision of the settlement agreement stating that complainant 's EEO file would remain confidential pursuant to applicable agency regulations and the Privacy Act , did not require the agency to do anything more than it was already legally obligated to do . However , the Respondent fails to demonstrate that the process for an employee to obtain an EEO package does not constitute a condition of employment . The Charging Party requested to bargain over the issue of when and to whom an EEO package will be given by the EEO office . The Agency argues that " the [ Agency ] considered the position to be excluded under Section 7112 ( a ) ( 3 ) and ( 4 ) of the Statute because the duties involved both administration of the EEO portion of Title 7 as well as Federal personnel work . Documents regarding unsubstantiated charges shall not be placed in personnel files , but shall be maintained by the Departmental EEO Officer in a confidential EEO file established expressly for retaining complaints of sexual harassment against employees of that Department . The Respondent 's EEO office provides employees who allege that they have experienced discrimination with an EEO package , consisting of blank forms and questionnaires , summaries of EEO law , and descriptions of the EEO complaint process . On December 26 , 1988 , Arbitrator Angelo issued his award in which he concluded , among other things , that the parties ' financial obligations are not governed by the " loser pays all " clause in the agreement if the arbitrator fails to reach the merits of the EEO issue .
