* The non-monetary benefits calculation reflects the number of individuals that have obtained a benefit provided by an employer under the provisions or terms of a mediated settlement that are not current, retroactive, or projected monetary payments or adjustments. Examples of non-monetary benefits include: policy changes, change of work hours or job responsibilities, reasonable accommodation (disability or religious), training, job referral and posting of an anti-discrimination notice in the employer's workplace. Mediated settlement agreements may include either monetary or non-monetary benefits or a combination of both types of benefits."
