SWIFT Requests

State agencies have an important role to play to make sure their contractors maintain a workplace free from discrimination under the Minnesota Human Rights Act.

The Minnesota Department of Human Rights generally processes complete SWIFT requests within 5 business days of receiving them, if not faster.
