Does this make sense to anyone? I submitted a complaint about my leader for discrimination two months ago. Now I am requesting a JaR and The ER lady who “investigated” the case is now working with my manager to determine if they will approve my JAR or not! How is this fair? Isn’t this a conflict?

A "JAR" is a Job Accommodation Request.
I would recommend anyone who has been treated by their manager or HR, go to EEOC. I'm sure they have plenty of complaints against USAA.
HR and Employee Relations is just covering their own a**.
A few E.D.'s are looking to be promoted to AVP and don't care who they have to step on or get rid of to get their way. The Employee Relations Advisor who was supposed to help me when I reported my manager for treating me unfairly, ignored me and sided with my manager. She knows who she is when she reads this post.
Polish the old resume up.
Are you guys part of a union? If not, sounds like you need one.
What is a JAR? I’m not sure what that is, maybe some internal phrase? Anyway, most places I’ve worked, their HR team handles a lot of stuff, not just one thing. If you’re really concerned about a conflict, could you ask if someone else can help you on this request?
Oh.. you messed up when you filed the discrimination complaint. ER will never side with an employee unless there is absolutely no way for the incident to be buried. ER is there to protect the business. So all they did was circle around your leader to protect them while simultaneously putting a target on your back. Better get that resume updated because you’re probably going to need it sooner than you think
It's very simple: every department exists for the sole purpose of protecting the company. Especially the departments that claim to be there to protect the employees. This is true of every company.
So what’s the purpose of these departments. I am not trying to be ignorant. I don’t understand!
Some people just don’t listen… JAR = expedited layoff.
Don’t go to internal source for anything. Have you seen police disciplining fellow police through IA? Heck no. The same principle applies at USAA.
When you need to make complaints, record your evidence in any way possible and go to the state or the federal agencies.
I would start applied elsewhere if I were the OP.
I went through the jar process and ultimately your leader is the one who approves it. It may not sound fair, but it’s ultimately the way that it works. I’m not even sure why we go through Lincoln financial when ultimately it flows back through to a USAA rep and then to your leader for approval.
Unfortunately, you have chosen the road that leads you, not the other, out the door...there were plenty of warnings on this site and others not to utilize internal processes... you're under the microscope as I type this and hopefully, you didn't post this on the network within the walls on your device..
