Get expert guidance on employment discrimination issues

You certainly know the major employment discrimination issues. But the intricacies of federal and state laws can make you feel as though you’re trekking through a mine field. The Employment Discrimination Coordinator database (EDC)Scope Information Graphic provides expert analysis and guidance on current federal and state laws pertaining to employment discrimination and wrongful discharge.

The database contains the complete text of the Employment Discrimination Coordinator, an eight-volume treatise. When you access the database, you can easily locate essential information about handling employment discrimination issues in the areas of selection and hiring, affirmative action, discharge and discipline, union and employment agency practices, and administrative and court proceedings.

The EDC database provides the following:

  • state-by-state analysis of unjust dismissal issues, making it easy to track a question across state lines
  • coverage of all employment discrimination areas in which significant differences exist between state and federal law
  • citations to controlling authorities
  • recommendations for handling specific employment discrimination situations
  • practice forms, sample pleadings, checklists, and model language and plans
