If the commissioner determines that a discriminatory act has been committed against an employee, the commissioner may enter into a settlement rather than proceeding with an administrative hearing.
An employee may withdraw a discrimination complaint at any point following the initial submission.
If an employee voluntarily withdraws a discrimination complaint, the commissioner may decide to proceed with an investigation on the commissioner's own if the commissioner believes a discriminatory act has been committed.
