Answer Given The Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) was enacted on February 5, 1993, to enable qualified employees to take prolonged unpaid leave for family- and healthrelated reasons without fear of losing their jobs Under the law, employees can use this leave if they are seriously ill, if an immediate family member is ill, or in the event of the birth, adoption, or placement for foster care of a child To qualify for the leave, employees must have been employed for at least a year and must have worked for no less than 1,250 hours within the previous 12-month period (p 29) Discuss the provisions of the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act of 1990 Answer Given Under the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act of 1990, employers may integrate disability and pension pay by paying the retiree the higher of the two; integrate retiree health insurance and severance pay by deducting the former from the latter; and, in cases of plant closings or mass layoffs, integrate pension and severance pay by deducting from severance pay the amount added to the pension The act also gives employees time to consider a company's early retirement package—21 days for an individual or 45 days if a group is involved Employees also have seven days to change their minds if they have signed a waiver of their right to sue Coverage of this law is the same as that under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (p 28-29) Explain the provisions of the Americans with Disabilities Act Answer Given In May 1990, Congress approved the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), which gives people with disabilities sharply increased access to services and jobs Under this law, employers may not: • Discriminate, in hiring and firing, against disabled persons who are qualified for a job; • Inquire whether an applicant has a disability, although employers may ask about his or her ability to perform a job; • Limit advancement opportunity for disabled employees; • Use tests or job requirements that tend to screen out disabled applicants; • Participate in contractual arrangements that discriminate against disabled persons Employers must also provide reasonable accommodations for employees with disabilities, such as making existing facilities accessible, providing special equipment and training, arranging part-time or modified work schedules, and providing readers for blind employees Employers not have to provide accommodations that impose an undue hardship on business operations The bill covers all employers with 15 or more employees (p 38-39) Which are the two federal agencies that have the primary responsibility for enforcing equal employment opportunity legislation in the country? Describe them in brief Answer Given Two federal agencies have the primary responsibility for enforcing equal employment opportunity legislation These agencies are the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs The Civil Rights Act created the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) to administer Title VII of the act The commission is composed of five members—including a chairperson and a vice chairperson— appointed by the president of the United States, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, for a term of five years Originally, the EEOC was responsible for investigating discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin Now it is also responsible for investigating equal pay violations, age discrimination, and discrimination against disabled persons The EEOC has the authority not only to investigate charges and complaints in these areas but also to intervene through the general counsel in a civil action on the behalf of an aggrieved party It also develops and issues guidelines to enforce nondiscriminatory practices in all of these areas Unlike the EEOC, which is an independent agency within the federal government, the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) is within the U.S Department of Labor It was established by Executive Order 11246 to ensure that federal contractors and subcontractors follow nondiscriminatory employment practices Prior to 1978, 11 different government agencies had contract compliance sections responsible for administering and enforcing Executive Order 11246 The OFCCP generally supervised and coordinated their activities In 1978, Executive Order 12086 consolidated the administration and enforcement functions within the OFCCP (p 36) What is the bottom line concept? How did the Supreme Court view this concept in its Connecticut v Teal decision? Answer Given The bottom line concept is based on the view that when the overall selection process does not have an adverse impact, the government will usually not examine the individual components of that process for adverse impact or evidence of validity However, in its Connecticut v Teal decision, the Supreme Court held that the nondiscriminatory bottom line results of the employer's selection process did not preclude the employees from establishing a prima facie case of discrimination and did not provide the employers with a defense in such a case Thus, the conclusion reached from this case is that bottom line percentages are not determinative Rather, the EEOC or a court will look at each test to determine whether it by itself has a disparate impact on a protected group (p 25) Explain the terms disparate treatment and disparate impact What is the difference between the two? Answer Given Disparate treatment refers to intentional discrimination and involves treating one class of employees differently from other employees Disparate impact refers to unintentional discrimination and involves employment practices that appear to be neutral but adversely affect a protected class of people Thus, the difference between the two is that disparate treatment refers to intentional discrimination whereas disparate impact refers to unintentional discrimination (p 27) What are the general provisions of the Rehabilitation Act (1973)? Answer Given The Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended, contains the following general provisions It: • prohibits discrimination against handicapped individuals by employers with federal contracts and subcontracts in excess of $2,500; • requires written affirmative action plans (AAPs) from employers of 50 or more employees and federal contracts of $50,000 or more; • prohibits discrimination against handicapped individuals by federal agencies; • requires affirmative action by federal agencies to provide employment opportunities for handicapped persons; • requires federal buildings to be accessible to handicapped persons; • prohibits discrimination against handicapped individuals by recipients of federal financial assistance (p 24-25) Write a short note on the Equal Pay Act Answer Given The Equal Pay Act is actually part of the minimum wage section of the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) It prohibits sex-based discrimination in rates of pay for men and women working on the same or similar jobs The act permits differences in wages if the payment is based on seniority, merit, quantity and quality of production, or a differential due to any factor other than sex The act also prohibits an employer from attaining compliance with the act by reducing the wage rate of any employee Generally, the act covers employers engaged in commerce or in the production of goods for commerce, employers that have two or more employees, and labor organizations Responsibility for enforcing the Equal Pay Act was originally assigned to the secretary of labor but was transferred to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) on July 1, 1979 .. employed for at least two years D To qualify for the leave, employees must have worked for no less than 1,250 hours within the previous 12-month period (p 31) Executive orders are issued for the.. the birth, adoption, or placement for foster care of a child To qualify for the leave, employees must have been employed for at least a year and must have worked for no less than 1,250 hours within.. responsibility for enforcing equal employment opportunity legislation in the country?
