In Michigan, the statute of limitations for filing an age harassment claim can vary depending on the specific circumstances of the case. Generally, employees who believe they have been subjected to age harassment in the workplace must file a charge of discrimination with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) or state law claim within 3 years of the alleged harassment. If the case is not resolved through the EEOC or MDCR, the employee may file a lawsuit in court. The statute of limitations for filing an age harassment lawsuit under federal law (the Age Discrimination in Employment Act or ADEA) is 300 days from the date of the alleged harassment. However, if the case involves both federal and state law claims, the employee may need to file a lawsuit in state court within three years from the date of the alleged harassment under the Michigan Elliott-Larsen Civil Rights Act. It is important to note that these deadlines can vary based on the specific details of the case, and it is recommended that employees consult with an attorney to understand their legal rights and options in filing an age harassment claim.
