New Hampshire Commission For Human Rights
New Hampshire workers that need to file a complaint against an employer for discrimination, retaliation, wrongful termination, sexual harassment, or any other workplace rights violations will have to file a complaint with the New Hampshire Commission For Human Rights. To start a complaint against an employer in New Hampshire you can go to the NHCHR’s website.
To file a claim against an employer for any type of employment rights violation you will need to fill out a claim questionnaire and submit it.

Equal Employment Opportunity Commission
Any worker whose Federal workplace rights have been violated can also file a complaint with the Federal Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.
