Equal employment opportunity, equity of access, and equity of treatment, for all persons regardless of sex, race or religion is the goal. Most importantly, a deliberate attempt to change institutional behavior is required, where to perpetuate the status quo would be to perpetuate a situation having an uneven and adverse impact on a particular class of persons. Thus, the law and its implementing regulations call for examination and analysis of employment practices; and where necessary, the implementation of strategies--such as goals and timetables in hiring and promotion--to permission remedy deficiencies where discovered. While the imminent Supreme Court decision in the case De Funis v. Odegaard may substantially alter describe without the force and impact of what is set out below, we have attempted to the outlines of the law as it is perceived today. The federal laws and regulations concerning discriminatory practices reproduced pertaining to educational institutions are: The Equal Pay Act of 1963, be as amended; Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972; Title VII of to the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended; Executive Order 11246 (as amended by 11375); and Title VII and Title VIII of the Public Health Service Act. Not • AAMC Executive Order 11246 (as amended by 11375) the effective on October 13, 1968, embodies two of Executive Order 11246, concepts: nondiscrimination and affirmative action. A university contractor is required to examine all employment policies collections to assure equitable treatment of all persons without regard for race, origin, or sex. Those employers with federal the color, religion, national contracts of $50,000 or more and having 50 employees or more, must have from a written affirmative action plan. Public institutions were previously exempt from the requirement of a written plan; in January 1973, that exemption was removed. Document The Office of Federal Contract Compliance (OFCC) of the Department of Labor establishes policy, but enforcement and review with respect to educational institutions rests with the Office for Civil Rights of HEW. The government may investigate without complaint. Pre-award reviews are mandatory for contracts over $1 million. Part or all of the institution may be reviewed. An institution under review must preserve identified records relevant to the complaint or alleged violation being investigated; the Government holds the right to review all records. This is true of all laws and regulations cited herein. By way of sanctions, the Government may hold up contracts, terminate current contracts and deny institutional eligibility • for future contracts. i Further, HEW may seek back pay for employees not previously protected by other laws. II/ Institutions are prohibited from discharging or discriminating against an employee who has filed a complaint or assisted in a complaint process. The name of the complainant is usually given to the institution during the course of the review. While individual complaints may be filed under the Executive Order, the Office for Civil Rights (OCR) by a memorandum of May 29, 1973, agreed to routinely hand over individual complaints to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) and OCR confines its activities to class complaints. Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (as amended by the Equal permission Opportunity Act of 1972) All institutions having fifteen or more employees are covered under without this act, whether or not they receive federal aid. Discrimination in employment (hiring, promotion, salaries, fringe benefits, or other conditions of employment) on the basis of race, color, religion, national origin or sex is specifically prohibited. The act is enforced by the Equal reproduced Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC). be to This act is distinguished from Executive Order 11246 in that religious Not institutions are exempt with respect to employment of persons of a particular religion or religious order, and such institutions may limit employment to persons of one sex. AAMC the Complaints are filed with EEOC by individual and/or organizations of within 180 days of the discriminatory act. The institutions are notified within ten days after a charge is filed. Like the Office for Civil Rights which enforces the Executive Order, EEOC may investigate part or all of an institution but does so only in response to a complaint-- collections unlike the OCR, which can initiate review on its own. The complainant the may, if conciliation fails, file an individual suit. EEOC's powers were extended in the amendments of the Equal Opportunity Act of 1972, which from permits it to instigate court action. Like the Executive Order: 1) harassment of the employee is prohibited, and 2) Document EEOC may seek back pay. The individual complainant is named at the time of the investigation though the full nature of the charges are not made public. In neither the Executive Order nor in Title VII, is the complainant bound by confidentiality. The Equal Pay Act of 1963 (as amended by the Education Amendments of 1972) The Equal Pay Act, prohibiting sex discrimination in salaries (and in most fringe benefits), is administered by the Department of Labor (the Wage and Hour Division of the Employment Standards Administration.) Complaints may be filed by individual or organizations by "Fetter, phone call or • personal visit to the nearest Wage and Hour Division Office.

  • February 26, 2021 Amazon Warehouse Workers in Bessemer
    February 26, 2021 Amazon warehouse workers in Bessemer, Alabama are voting to form a union with the Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union (RWDSU). We are the writers of feature films and television series. All of our work is done under union contracts whether it appears on Amazon Prime, a different streaming service, or a television network. Unions protect workers with essential rights and benefits. Most importantly, a union gives employees a seat at the table to negotiate fair pay, scheduling and more workplace policies. Amazon accepts unions for entertainment workers, and we believe warehouse workers deserve the same respect in the workplace. We strongly urge all Amazon warehouse workers in Bessemer to VOTE UNION YES.

  • Textual (Im)Possibilities in the U.S. Post-Network Era: Negotiating Production and Promotion Processes on Lifetime’S Any Day Now
    Critical Studies in Media Communication Vol. 21, No. 1, March 2004, pp. 22–43 Textual (Im)Possibilities in the U.S. Post-Network Era: Negotiating Production and Promotion Processes on Lifetime’s Any Day Now AmandaA. D. [email protected] D. Lotz This essay explores the struggles experienced in the creation, production, and promotion of a U.S. television series that deliberately sought to encourage cultural reflection about ethnic diversity and defied industrial norms as an original narrative program produced for a cable network. Any Day Now (1998–2002) was the first successful original series produced for the Lifetime Television network and was one of the first successful original cable series. Through an analysis of the production process, interviews with the creators and writers of the series, and examination of the series’ promotion, this essay explores how the transition to a post-network era of industrial organization and competitive practice affected the production and promotion of the series and its narratives. These findings are informative both in terms of the specific case and as they might be extrapolated as characteristic of the development of the post-network era. By the late 1990s, the economy of the U.S. television industry had been significantly reconfigured from the fairly static relations that had characterized it from its 1950s origin to the mid 1980s. A variety of factors—including the success of cable and satellite transmission, the appearance of new broadcast networks, increased owner- ship conglomeration, decreased regulation, and the emergence of new technolo- gies—combined to usher in a new era of industry competition, forcing adjustments by traditional broadcast networks.
