During the last part of this century, businesses and organizations have heavily relied on affirmative actions laws to ensure equal employment opportunities. The failure of this dependence upon legislation is that is doesn't address the full spectrum of diversity in the workplace (6). Affirmative actions laws have limitations, discriminating against people holding protected-class status such as women, African Americans, Hispanic Americans, Asian Americans,

Over the last several decades, workplace issues have become an area of controversy for most employers. This is because the regulations surrounding what practices are considered to be discriminatory have increased dramatically. To enforce these issues, the Equal Opportunity Employment Commission (EEOC) is playing a central role in making employers follow these provisions of the law. A recent example of this occurred, with the case EEOC v. HCS Medical Staffing Inc.

3. In seeking to ensure conformance to EEO laws, what evidence of discrimination does the EEOC look for? In which areas of management is this most likely to occur?

The plaintiff, who is 63 years old, brought this employment discrimination suit against her employer, J.C. Penney, after the company failed to promote her to the position of shift operations manager at the company 's Moosic, Pennsylvania Customer Service Center. She alleged violations of the Age Discrimination in Employment Act Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. She brought these claims against both the company and the PHRA claims against her supervisor at the Moosic center, James Johnson.

The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) receives several charges related to the allegations of retaliation. In view of this, the EEOC has recently issued the final Enforcement Guidance on Retaliation and Related Issues (Guidance) in order to replace 1998 Compliance Manual section related to retaliation. In addition to the Guidance, the EEOC has issued two other documents—a brief Small Business Fact Sheet condensing the key points of the Guidance—and a question-and-answer summarizing the Guidance.

The Civil Rights Act of 1964, which prohibits job discrimination on the basis of race, sex, color, religion, national origin, continues to face limitations (Bernardin, 2007). As I interview for open position within my organizations, I must remain neutral to sex, age, and race. Do I feel that this is always the case with all organization? No. There will always be questionable organizational standards and compliance issues. Employers may “stray” from the law if they feel organizational efficiency and production may be affected. This is portrayed in not hiring someone over 60 years of age. The candidate feels they have been discriminated against due to their age. Whereas, the employer sees a strong 30 year old who may be able to lift twice the

In this week’s assignment, we will discuss employment discrimination. First I will share the results of researched conducted on the internet about specific case involving employment discrimination and bona fide occupational qualification (BFOQ). Next I will discuss the following questions that have been posed, first should Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 apply to every company, regardless of number of employees? Secondly should race and color be permissible bona fide occupational qualifications or should the BFOQ exceptions to employment discrimination be removed completely?

Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) laws have helped shape the workforce today and they have greatly contributed to the introduction of diversity in the working environment. No longer are people rejected of employment based on their race, gender, age, or disability. The labor force has increased from 62 million people in 1950 to over 159 million people in the labor force today (Toolsi). The passing of the EEO laws proved to be a great advancement in the diversity of the workforce and treatment of employees, but it was a tremendous battle to get where we are today. Before the passing of these laws, unequal treatment was normal and discrimination was common among the majority of employers. This made acquiring employment difficult and caused many people to be unemployed. Three Equal Employment Opportunity laws that helped diminish these discriminatory practices were Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Equal Pay Act of 1963, and the American with Disabilities Act of 1990. For each law, I will describe what it enforces and explain the actions that happened in society and the workplace that made these laws necessary. I will discuss important political figures that contributed to the passing of these laws. Lastly, I will examine how each law has improved human resources and has led to better management of employees overall.

Since the end of the segregation with the Civil Rights Movement, many believed that racism in the United States had come to an end. However, there are still many instances where racial inequality still occurs, and this is especially prevalent in the workplace. Although this sort of discrimination is illegal, individuals cannot always be prosecuted for this crime because it often happens in subtle manners that are not easy to prove. Regardless, every person, no matter the color of their skin, has the inherent right to be treated with fairness and equality, especially when dealing with matters in the corporate world.
