Analysis of FCHR Investigatory Determinations
By Charged Basis

Fact #1: Charges of discrimination on the basis of familial status receive the highest rate of “reasonable cause” determinations.

Featuring a ‘cause’ determination rate of 14% (all-time).

It’s important to note, however, that cases of discrimination on this basis are among the least common. In other words, this determination rate is based on a small population size.

Fact #2: Charges of religious discrimination receive the lowest rate of “reasonable cause” determinations.

Featuring a ‘cause’ determination rate of 7% (all-time).

Takeaway #1: The determination rates are relatively uniform across the different charged bases.

Takeaway #2: Regardless of what charges have been alleged, the FCHR maintains its practice of rendering no cause determinations at a high rate (85%-95%).
