Privacy Rights, Public Policy, And The Employment Relationship, Pauline Kim
Privacy Rights, Public Policy, And The Employment Relationship, Pauline Kim
Scholarship@WashULaw
Two well-established common law doctrines increasingly are coming into conflict. The first protects individuals from unreasonable intrusions on their privacy. The second authorizes an employer to fire its employees at will, unless a clear agreement exists to the contrary. As employees have begun to assert their common law right of privacy' in the workplace, their claims have collided headlong with the doctrine of employment at will.
Turning Labor Into Love: Housework And The Law, Katharine B. Silbaugh
Turning Labor Into Love: Housework And The Law, Katharine B. Silbaugh
Faculty Scholarship
Women's unpaid domestic labor produces tremendous economic value. In the United States, women spend more of their productive work hours in unpaid labor than in paid labor, and the credible estimates of the economic value of unpaid labor range from the equivalent of 24% to 60% of the U.S. Gross Domestic Product ("GDP"). Given its economic value and its significant role in the working lives of women, it is surprising that the topic of home labor has received no systematic examination by legal scholars. This Article undertakes such an examination. It concludes that a wide range of legal doctrines treat …
Claiming Private Law For The Left: Exploring Gilmer's Impact And Legacy, Roberto L. Corrada
Claiming Private Law For The Left: Exploring Gilmer's Impact And Legacy, Roberto L. Corrada
Sturm College of Law: Faculty Scholarship
The left should not be so quick to condemn private arbitration of statutory rights for two primary reasons. First, although these processes have historically been seized by employers as an efficient, less costly alternative to litigation devoid of due process safeguards, there is nothing inherent in private arbitration to prevent making the process fairer for employees. Second, there is a substantial payoff that justifies the work required by those on the left to transform these processes for the betterment of employees. That payoff is greater access to justice. Private arbitration holds the potential to eliminate institutional barriers that block access …
Journalists As Professionals: Rethinking The Professional Exemption Under The Fair Labor Standards Act, Edward D. Cavanagh
Journalists As Professionals: Rethinking The Professional Exemption Under The Fair Labor Standards Act, Edward D. Cavanagh
Faculty Publications
(Excerpt)
This Article examines the question of whether journalists in the print or electronic media are professionals and hence exempt from coverage under the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 ("FLSA") or whether they are wage earners and therefore covered by the FLSA. Department of Labor regulations are unclear as to the status of journalists under the FLSA; they recognize that journalists may qualify as professionals but appear to state that most journalists are covered by the FLSA. Those regulations, however, are seriously outdated and out of touch with the modem world of journalism. Promulgated when television was in its …

Fired Employees And/Or Frozen-Out Shareholders (An Essay), Deborah A. Schmedemann
Fired Employees And/Or Frozen-Out Shareholders (An Essay), Deborah A. Schmedemann
Faculty Scholarship
The thesis of this essay can be stated as follows: Shareholder-employees should be able to recover for loss of employment, within the cause of action provided by corporate law, where the termination violates public law, breaches the agreement among the shareholders, or is unsupported by legitimate business purposes. In Part II, this essay presents the employment model, including the paradigm of employment that the law builds on, the starting premise of employment law, the roles of private and public law, and the remedies afforded for violations of an employee's rights. In Part III, this essay develops the corporate model, discussing …
Guilty Knowledge, Daniel S. Kleinberger
Guilty Knowledge, Daniel S. Kleinberger
Faculty Scholarship
Agency law's attribution rules impose most of the risk of agent misconduct on the party who selects the agent and benefits from the agent's endeavors, i.e., the principal. The rules thus help establish and maintain a proper balance of risk between principals and third parties. Unfortunately, a recent unpublished decision of the Minnesota Court of Appeals, Engen v. Mitch's Bar & Grill, threatens to upset that balance and release principals from responsibility for an important type of information possessed by their agents. Engen is dangerous, despite its unpublished status. This Case Note seeks to eliminate any influence the case might …

Judicial Creation Of Norms In Japanese Labor Law: Activism In The Service Of — Stability?, Daniel H. Foote
Judicial Creation Of Norms In Japanese Labor Law: Activism In The Service Of — Stability?, Daniel H. Foote
Articles
This Article begins by examining the judiciary's role in employment litigation. Part II then considers the implications of this and related examples of judicial creation of norms in Japan. Plainly, in this context the stereotype of a passive judiciary with little significance for private parties is inaccurate. Yet do these cases truly reflect judicial "activism"? What is their significance with respect to the separation of powers debate? Even with regard to the sphere of private ordering, what judicial philosophy do they reflect? This Article then examines the impact that this judicially created set of employment norms has had, both on …
