  • Employment Discrimination Law in the United States: on the Road to Equality?
    Employment Discrimination Law in the United States: On the Road to Equality? Employment Discrimination Law in the United States: On the Road to Equality? Risa Lieberwitz Cornell University I. Introduction U.S. antidiscrimination law seeks to address a history of workplace exclusion of individuals and groups on the basis of race, sex, national origin, and religion. Added to the core protections against discrimination on these bases, more recent legislation has recognized the need to expand the law to include discrimination on the basis of age and disability. Yet, as significant as antidiscrimination law has been, the U.S. workforce continues to reflect occupational segregation on these bases. Added to these problems is the growing insecurity of workforce made up increasingly by contingent employees, who are often drawn from the same groups needing protection under employment discrimination laws. The legislative and judicial agenda, thus, must remain focused on the same fundamental questions that led to initial passage of antidiscrimination laws. What goals should these laws seek to achieve? How should progress toward equality be measured? Should the law be concerned with equal treatment of individuals as well as equal results for protected groups? Can the law provide substantive equality in addition to formal equality? This paper describes and analyzes U.S. antidiscrimination law. It begins by describing the legal context of labor and employment law in the U.S., set against the background of the doctrine of employment at will. The discussion then focuses on Title VII of the Civil Rights 1 Act of 1964, which has been central to developing discrimination theory that has been applied to subsequent antidiscrimination laws.

  • Resignation Letter Samples
    RESIGNATION LETTER SAMPLES How to Write the Perfect Resignation Letter By Larry Barkdull, Award-Winning, Nationally Recognized Writer We tend to equate career success with performance on the job, but first and last impressions are just as important. Resigning from a job can be a very difficult task, and one that seldom receives proper attention. A good resignation letter can help you resign on a positive note and smooth the transition to your next job. Furthermore, a well-written resignation letter can help you to maintain a network of friendly coworkers and managers. Keep the letter short and to the point—one page is usually enough. Say goodbye gracefully. A resignation letter announces or confirms your resignation and should consist of several parts: • Inside address/date. At the left-hand margin, type the date, then skip two single returns and type the name and title of the person who will receive the letter, followed by the company's address: Example: January 30, 2005 John Taylor, Area Supervisor Thompson Publishing Co. 123 Thompson Plaza Any town, PA 16555 • Your resignation letter should then continue with a formal salutation, followed by a colon: Example: Dear Mr. John Taylor: • Last date of employment. State the effective date of your resignation— the last date you expect to be at work. It is standard to give a resignation notice two weeks prior to your last day at the company, but don't be surprised if your employer suggests you leave sooner or later than that. • Reasons. Depending on the circumstances, you may want to explain your reasons for making this decision and your regret in doing so, but your explanation should be simple and brief.

  • View of the New Deal at the National Level
    “THE BEST FORM OF ASSISTANCE ALWAYS IS THE KIND THAT ENABLES FOLKS TO HELP THEMSELVES”: PUBLIC REACTION TO THE NEW DEAL IN HANCOCK, SENECA, AND WOOD COUNTIES OF OHIO Anthony J. Bolton A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS May 2021 Committee: Rebecca Mancuso, Advisor Michael Brooks © 2021 Anthony J. Bolton All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Rebecca Mancuso, Advisor The Great Depression and New Deal had a profound impact on the United States. It led to the need for fundamental changes in the nation, especially regarding the federal government’s role and size. The beginning of the Great Depression marked the end of the “New Era” that the United States had experienced in the 1920s. However, one group of Americans—farmers—did not participate in this “New Era,” including those in three Northwestern Ohio counties: Hancock, Seneca, and Wood. This study analyzes through voting and media analysis how these three counties reacted to the Great Depression and the New Deal from 1929 to 1936. As the Depression continued to worsen, their suffering continued and even worsened, and with Herbert Hoover’s inability to provide relief or a path to recovery, these counties and the rest of the nation turned to Franklin Roosevelt and his promise of a “new deal” to provide that relief. Within these counties, the New Deal was initially seen as successful; however, it was soon seen as having a corrosive effect on traditional American values. Because of this, these counties rejected Roosevelt and the New Deal in 1936, while the rest of the nation overwhelmingly supported him.
