The EEOC’s FY 2022 state table lists 808 retaliation charge receipts in Indiana. That count equals 43.4% of the 1,861 total charge receipts recorded for Indiana that fiscal year.
What the Indiana figure measures
This page reports the count published in the EEOC’s state charge-receipt table for the listed basis. A charge receipt records an allegation submitted to the EEOC. It does not establish that discrimination occurred, that an employer was liable, that a lawsuit was filed, or that anyone received a settlement or award.
How this category compares within the Indiana table
Retaliation was the largest listed category in the Indiana table. This comparison is only between the listed categories and counts in the EEOC’s FY 2022 Indiana table. It does not show which allegations were substantiated, which claims were most severe, or which situations are most likely to have a particular outcome.
Why the percentage is not a success rate
The 43.4% figure is calculated only by dividing the listed retaliation count (808) by the EEOC’s total Indiana charge receipts (1,861) for FY 2022. A charge may identify multiple bases, so the basis counts overlap. The percentage is not a measure of case outcomes, the prevalence of discrimination, or the likelihood of any result.
Questions this data cannot answer
State-level receipt data does not reveal the facts of a specific workplace situation. It does not determine whether a charge is within an applicable filing period, whether the EEOC has jurisdiction, whether a related state or local rule applies, or what remedy may be available. Those questions require current official guidance and facts specific to the situation.

Important: A charge receipt is an allegation filed with the EEOC; it is not a finding of wrongdoing, a case result, a settlement, or an award. A person may allege more than one basis, so total charges are lower than the sum of listed bases.
