Nebraska Employment Claim Deadlines and Damages

Under Nebraska law, an employment discrimination claim must be filed with the Nebraska Equal Opportunity Commission within 300 days of the alleged discriminatory act. This filing deadline is set by Neb. Rev. Stat. § 48-1104, which governs the procedure for bringing a claim under the Nebraska Fair Employment Practice Act. The 300-day period begins running from the date the alleged unlawful employment practice occurred. Failure to file within this window generally bars the claim. The statute also sets out the prerequisites for bringing a civil action after the administrative process. The worked example below illustrates how the 300-day timeline applies in a typical scenario. To estimate your own deadline, use the DocketMath calculator.
