The charges relate to an incident in the latter stages of the first half when a tackle by home midfielder James McCarthy on West Ham's Morgan Amalfitano provoked an angry reaction from the visiting players and a melee broke out.
An FA statement read: “It is alleged that in or around the 40th minute of the fixture, both clubs failed to ensure their players conducted themselves in an orderly fashion.
“The clubs have until 6pm on 1 December 2014 to respond to the charge.”
Both McCarthy and West Ham defender Winston Reid were booked by referee Mark Clattenburg.
Everton won the game 2-1 thanks to a 73rd-minute winner from Leon Osman after Mauro Zarate had cancelled out Romelu Lukaku’s opener for the hosts.
