Overview

The book ""Employment Discrimination In Labor Law"" provides a comprehensive exploration of employment discrimination, focusing on disparate treatment in the workplace. It delves into the historical background, legal foundations, and real-world cases that shape our understanding of employment law. The book covers various aspects of employment discrimination, including race, gender, age, religion, disability, and sexual orientation. It also discusses the psychological effects and emotional toll of discrimination, as well as the essential role of legislation and court decisions in shaping our understanding of unfair treatment in employment. The book begins with an Introduction that exposes the harsh reality of disparate treatment in employment discrimination, highlighting the persistent issue despite the teachings of equal treatment. It emphasizes the importance of safeguarding principles of equity, meritocracy, and individual rights through established laws and regulations. The Historical Perspective on Employment Discrimination chapter traces the early history of employment discrimination, including significant legislative actions such as Executive Order 8802 by President Franklin D. Roosevelt and the Civil Rights Act of 1964. It discusses the role of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) and various amendments to Title VII that have shaped the legal landscape. The textbook is designed in a way that allows educators more time teaching, while assigning essay questions in the book as practice tests and examinations for students. It serves as a resource for law students, attorneys, educators, and those seeking a world where individuals are judged based on their skills, character, and potential, rather than their inherent characteristics. Each chapter of the book, from one to fourteen, includes major court cases, thought-provoking essay questions, and multiple-choice tests at the end on materials covered in the book.
