in the grievance (as applicable per union contract) and then file an EEO claim, the latter may be dismissed. See EEOC's Equal Employment Opportunity Management Directive, 29 C.F.R. Part 1614.107(a)(4). It is advisable, therefore, to file EEO claims first (alleging discrimination) and then (on the next day) file a grievance alleging violation of union contract without mentioning discrimination in the grievance. In this way you may get the two processes going at the same time on the same issues but under two separate proceedings. If the grievance is resolved satisfactorily, the EEO claim may become moot and thus may be dismissed as resolved. Generally, "constructive discharge" discrimination issues involving non-probationary federal employees are appealable only to the MSPB, and not to EEOC. See EEOC's Equal Employment Opportunity Management Directive for 29 C.F.R. Part 1614, (EEO-MD-110) ("MD-110"), Chapter 4, Section II.B., pages 4-2 through 4-5. Generally, you don't have a right to a hearing before an EEOC Administrative Judge on a mixed-case complaint involving discrimination issues such as removal, suspension of more than 14 days, furlough, or on any other actions appealable to MSPB, since you may appeal them to MSPB.
