The Equal Opportunity Act ( 2010 )

In 1964, the Civil Rights Act was created to address discrimination in education, employment, and voting. The law was created in the midst of civil rights protests breaking out all over the country. The act was under heavy opposition when it was first created, and hung in jeopardy of being lost when JFK was killed in november of 1963. But in 1964, the Civil rights act was finally passed. And in this act was The Equal Opportunity laws.

The Equality Act 2010 shortens the existing laws and puts them all together in one piece of legislation. On the other hand, it makes the law resilient in some areas. This law protects employees from perception in workplace and in the world. Equality Act 2010 replaces all anti-discrimination laws within a single Act. This Act has 116 single pieces of legislations and has been put together into one Act which is known as Equality Act 2010. This Act has started to work in UK and EU in 2010 of October.

Associative discrimination: direct discrimination against somebody because they are associated with another person protected characteristic. This can include carers of

The Eros Lodge and the Eros Bar and Grill, under the scope of the law, are directly involved in interstate commerce. They are a public hotel and restaurant and open to both local citizens and citizens traveling from out of state. While their clientele may consist primarily of locals, it does not mean that out-of-state travels cannot or would not stay there. Mr. Bates, the owner, did not say he didn’t rent to travelers from out of state, he only said he wouldn’t rent to same-sex couples. However, since interstate commerce is defined as travel, trade, traffic, transportation, or communication among several states, his establishments fall under its domain – and therefore have no right to be excluded from the Equal Access Act. Discriminating against

The Equality Act 2010 was set up to help protect and stop people from suffering discrimination. It can help to protect people with disabilities, mental illnesses and physical conditions. It helps them to stop being harassed or discriminated against. This can also provide legal rights in areas such as educations, employment and services

Affirmative action legislation in the United States has its basic framework in the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which mandates that firms with more than 15 employees are subject to a variety of anti-discrimination policies, more of which were passed in subsequent years. In some cases, the concept of affirmative action was taken to be a voluntary act to attain diversity. For the most part, however, courts have interpreted affirmative action laws as having little teeth under the Constitution. It has been suggested that "racial preferences in federal law or policy are a remedy of last resort" (Dale, 2005)

Racism is a powerful piece in our nations history. About more than 60 years ago, we struggled in a society of discrimination and racial segregation. We lived in a time of cruelty because we didn’t see eye to eye with a person who had a different skin color. But overtime we have evolved from racism and focused on fairness. The interpretation of the Fourteenth Amendment has contributed to racial equality by the Equal Protection clause. The clause was a deciding factor in cases that involved racism. Though it sometimes limited rights, the Equal Protection clause eventually became a key element to justice.

Until the Equal Pay Act (EPA) of 1963, many women were paid less for doing the same work as men. This division of wages often caused hardships and bitterness forcing women to work more hours on a weekly basis in order to make the same amount of money as their male counterparts. In order to understand the impact of the Equal Pay Act, you must first understand its purpose, the benefits, and also consider the negative effects.

Equality of rights under the law shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex." That opening sentence to the proposed Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) to the U.S. Constitution embodied the central mission of the modern feminist movement:

In an attempt to improve the chances of securing and promoting high potential individuals for strategic and competitive reasons, organizations have increased the use of assessment measures in the workplace, attracting the scrutiny of the courts and enforcement agencies (Ashe & Lundquist, 2010). These authors posited that the reason for this increased scrutiny arises from the fact that even in spite of the fact that organizations may not harbor a negative or illegal intent, disparate impact, or the unintended negative outcome of a testing measure upon a protected class have been reported. According to these authors, some of the existing statutes that inform the acceptability and appropriateness of selection procedures included Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Americans with Disabilities Act, and the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967. With that in mind, they outlined the legal and professional standards that have evolved to guide the content and context of assessment applications.

Section 18c of the Racial Discrimination Act renders any deed unless done in private that offends, humiliates, insults or intimidates another person on the basis of race. The act prohibits discrimination either overt or implied on the basis of race or racial group. The Act which has remained in the statutes since 1995 became inconvenient for the supporters of LNP after the findings of Eatock v Bolt (2011) which found Andrew Bolt to have breached the Act by talking about Aborigines that are lighter skinned. Senator Brandis had proposed a freedom of speech bill of 2014 which desired to repeal section 18C and accord Australians the ‘right to be bigots.’

This act is much like the ADA, the only difference is that the Rehabilitation Act is that it focuses on the federal government. “The Rehabilitation Act of 1973 was the first “rights” legislation to prohibit discrimination against people with disabilities. However, this law applied to programs conducted by Federal agencies, those receiving federal funds, such as colleges participating in federal student loan programs, Federal employment, and employment practices of businesses with federal contracts” (The Rehabilitation Act of 1973, 2011). Section 501 demands affirmative action and bans discrimination in employment by Federal agencies. Section 505 includes steps managing solutions and attorney's expenditures under Section 501 (The Rehabilitation Act of 1973, 2011).

Discrimination occurs when an employee suffers from unfavorable or unfair treatment due to their race, religion, national origin, disabled or veteran status, or other legally protected characteristics. Employees who have suffered reprisals for opposing workplace discrimination or for reporting violations to the authorities are also considered to be discriminated against. Federal law prohibits discrimination in work-related areas, such as recruiting, hiring, job evaluations, promotion policies, training, compensation and disciplinary action. (employeeissues.com, 2006)
