Union Decisions On Collective Bargaining Goals: A Proposal For Interest Group Participation, Eileen Silverstein
Union Decisions On Collective Bargaining Goals: A Proposal For Interest Group Participation, Eileen Silverstein
Michigan Law Review
This Article assesses the consequences of unions' virtually unrestrained power to set bargaining priorities and to reconcile antagonisms among the workers they represent. It then evaluates the function that economic interest groups within unions might serve if workers were encouraged to form interest groups and these groups were recognized as legitimate mechanisms for meeting the diverse needs of a heterogeneous workforce.
Rationalizing Administrative Searches, Michigan Law Review
Rationalizing Administrative Searches, Michigan Law Review
Michigan Law Review
At the outset, this Note examines the major decisions concerning administrative searches. Specifically, it traces the development of a warrant requirement and of the corresponding lower standard of probable cause announced in the Camara and See decisions. Subsequent modifications of that seemingly absolute rule are then analyzed. To develop a framework for evaluating administrative search cases, Section II groups those principal Supreme Court cases, along with pertinent lower court opinions, into three tiers of fourth amendment protection: administrative searches that require a warrant based on a traditional criminal standard of probable cause; administrative searches that require a warrant based on …
Wage Discrimination, Job Segregation, And Title Vii Of The Civil Rights Act Of 1964, Ruth G. Blumrosen
Wage Discrimination, Job Segregation, And Title Vii Of The Civil Rights Act Of 1964, Ruth G. Blumrosen

Birth Defects Caused By Parental Exposure To Workplace Hazards: The Interface Of Title Vii With Osha And Tort Law, Lynne Darcy
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
This article will examine the problem of workers' exposure to toxic substances that affect human reproductive functions in light of the applicable legal framework provided by tort law, the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 (OSHA), and Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. What employers may do to deal with this problem under existing law, and possible resolutions of some apparent conflicts between the underlying purposes of these laws, will also be delineated. It is the position of this article that the competing interests of employers, workers, and workers' offspring must be harmonized not by excluding …
