S.C. Code Regs. § § 71-1017
Current through Register Vol. 48, 12, December 27, 2024
Enforcement of the provisions of Section 41-15-510 is not only a matter of protecting rights of individual employees, but also of public interest. Attempts by an employee to withdraw previously filed complaint will not necessarily result in termination of the Commissioner's investigation. The Commissioner's jurisdiction cannot be foreclosed as a matter of law by unilateral action of the employee. However, a voluntary and uncoerced request from a complainant to withdraw his complaint will be given careful consideration and substantial weight as a matter of policy and sound enforcement procedure.
