Geoffrey Weirich Equal Employment Opportunity Committee ABA Section of Labor and Employment Law THE PREMIER TREATISE on the law of discrimination in the workplace ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: For more than 35 years, Employment Discrimination Law has been the definitive treatise in this complex and highly detailed area of law. The new Fifth Edition of Employment Discrimination Law provides updated analysis of changes and significant new developments since the previous supplement, including rewritten chapters on EEOC Administrative Processes and Federal Contractor Affirmative Action Compliance. The Fifth Edition offers substantial revisions and updates to many chapters, including: > > Ledbetter v. Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co., Inc., where the Supreme Court s decision on the Title VII statute of limitations accrual date for pay discrimination claims sparked passage of the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act of 2009, the first act of Congress signed into law by President Barack Obama > > The Supreme Court s rulings expanding the breadth of retaliation claims > > The Supreme Court s decision in Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. v. Dukes, addressing Title VII class actions > > The impact of the Supreme Court s multiple decisions on the viability of agreements to arbitrate employment disputes In addition, in most chapters, footnotes now focus almost exclusively on decisions by the Supreme Court and the U.S. Courts of Appeals, avoiding cumulative and space-consuming citations, with the exception that district court decisions have been retained in instances where they constitute an important part of the developing case law (such as under newer statutes) and in fields such as procedure and evidence where there is little appellate authority. Throughout this treatise, legal specialists from the management, plaintiff, union, and public practice perspective provide a balanced presentation of the labor and employment issues surrounding discrimination in the workplace. The new Fifth Edition offers the most comprehensive coverage and unbiased analysis of employment discrimination law available anywhere. Visit for more detailed information. Barbara T.

Timeliness of Claims Part III. The Parties Part IV. The Causal Connection WORKPLACE HARASSMENT LAW By Barbara T. Lindemann and David D. Kadue AN EXPANSION OF Sexual Harassment in Employment Law :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: Workplace Harassment Law provides the comprehensive coverage that attorneys need when bringing or defending a suit, offering guidance from seasoned practitioners. The treatise examines the nuts and bolts of workplace harassment law, from requirements for bringing a suit to establishment of harassment, actionable forms of harassment, and determination of employer liability. The treatise discusses harassment based on gender, race or color, national origin, religion, age, disability, association, and proximity. It starts with a history of workplace harassment, analyzing legislation that has come to define workplace harassment law, including opinions of the federal appellate courts interpreting Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and other anti-discrimination laws. Looking at the requirements for bringing a case, Workplace Harassment Law explores timeliness and timely exhaustion of administrative remedies; the parties involved in a claim; and establishment of the causal connection, one of the most important requirements of a harassment claim. The treatise discusses the causal connection with respect to each of the protected classes, and provides analysis of laws regarding retaliation and other adverse employment actions for opposing workplace harassment on the basis of these protected classes. The treatise provides a thorough examination of actionable forms of harassment, discussing: > > Tangible employment actions alleged to result from harassment > > Hostile work environments caused by conduct (a) so severe or pervasive that it creates an environment that any reasonable person would find hostile or (b) that the plaintiff perceives as creating a hostile work environment > > Criteria used to determine whether the harassment creates a work environment so intolerable that any reasonable person would quit Finally, the treatise moves to the topic of employer liability, analyzing: > > Quid pro quo cases, in which an employer is automatically liable for harassment by a supervisor > > Employer liability for harassment culminating in a tangible employment action > > Vicarious liability for hostile work environments wherein the harasser wields supervisory authority over the plaintiff, and the ways to reduce or avoid liability in such cases > > Employer negligence the most commonly invoked theory of employer liability Part V. Harassment Culminating in a Tangible Employment Action or a Hostile Work Environment Part VI. Employer Liability Part VII.
