Download or read book Discrimination Jobs and Politics written by Paul Burstein and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1998-02-28 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout this impressive and controversial account of the fight against job discrimination in the United States, Paul Burstein poses searching questions. Why did Congress adopt EEO legislation in the sixties and seventies? Has that legislation made a difference to the people it was intended to help? And what can the struggle for equal employment opportunity tell us about democracy in the United States? "This is an important, well-researched book. . . . Burstein has had the courage to break through narrow specializations within sociology . . . and even to address the types of acceptable questions usually associated with three different disciplines (political science, sociology, and economics). . . . This book should be read by all professionals interested in political sociology and social movements."—Donald Tomaskovic-Devey, Social Forces "Discrimination, Jobs and Politics [is] satisfying because it tells a more complete story . . . than does most sociological research. . . . I find myself returning to it when I'm studying the U.S. women's movement and recommending it to students struggling to do coherent research."—Rachel Rosenfeld, Contemporary Sociology

Download or read book Workplace Discrimination Prevention Manual written by David A. Robinson J.D and published by Archway Publishing. This book was released on 2013-04 with total page 109 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most important color in the workplace is not black or white, but green. A company's employment decisions should be based on the bottom line, not on an employee's skin color, gender, age, ethnicity, or other discriminatory category. Businesses shouldn't care if an employee is black, white, brown, red, or some other color; they should care how well they perform their job. In Workplace Discrimination Prevention Manual, author and attorney David A. Robinson teaches employers how to prevent some of the more common types of illegal discrimination in the workplace and how to prevent or reduce the impact or likelihood of a discrimination lawsuit. He helps employers learn how to run a productive, efficient, profitable business without violating the discrimination laws. Robinson answers some of the most perplexing questions in human resource management today: - Should employers think about the race and skin color of their employees, or should employers be race-blind and color-blind? - Should supervisors be more lenient with aging and disabled employees than with other employees, or should they treat everyone the same? - Should employers treat men and women differently, or the same? Filled with innovative, practical tips, Workplace Discrimination Prevention Manual provides an easy-to-understand overview of employment discrimination law and discusses the specifics of race, ethnicity, age, religion, disability, and sexual orientation discrimination. This guidebook presents a valuable resource for executives, managers, lawyers, business students, and law students.
