American And British Employment Discrimination Law: An Introductory Comparative Survey, Robert N. Covington
American And British Employment Discrimination Law: An Introductory Comparative Survey, Robert N. Covington
Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law
Age, alienage, ethnicity, race, religion, and sex lead to differential treatment of individuals the world over. Employment discrimination is felt most acutely in those industrialized nations where one's income level is the major determinant of so many other things: where one lives, what one wears, how one's children are educated. Concern over the social and economic consequences of employment discrimination has led to the development of new legal techniques on both sides of the Atlantic. The recent enactment in Britain of the Sex Discrimination Act, 1975, and the Race Relations Act, 1976, invites a comparison of those statutes and related …
Sex Discrimination In Employment: The Nova Scotia Human Rights Act, Elizabeth Shilton Lennon
Sex Discrimination In Employment: The Nova Scotia Human Rights Act, Elizabeth Shilton Lennon
Dalhousie Law Journal
Nova Scotia enacted human rights legislation in 1963,2 but it was not until 1972 that the Act was amended to include sex as one of the prohibited grounds of discrimination. 3 Since 1957 women in Nova Scotia had had equal pay protection, 4 but this brought about no noticeable improvement in the status of women in the labour force. Some commentators have suggested that equal pay laws in fact worsened that status by giving employers economic incentives to maintain and consolidate low-paying all-female job ghettoes to avoid the effects of the legislation. 5 Equal pay legislation could have no application …

Affirmative Action: Quotas And Traditional University Standards With Particular Emphasis On The Role Of The Department Chairman, William D. Wheeler
Affirmative Action: Quotas And Traditional University Standards With Particular Emphasis On The Role Of The Department Chairman, William D. Wheeler
IUSTITIA
The higher educational institution is often an exclusive citadel. Students are selected after close scrutiny of past achievements. Teachers as merchants of ideas, virtues, and cosmic thoughts are invited to membership only after certain academic passports have been acquired. These eligibility criteria are established by the faculty who, presumably, are the only ones capable of assessing reasonable standards for those seeking admission. Colleges and universities are closed sub-communities. They practice discrimination while giving lip service to liberal thought, knowledge, and enlightenment. It comes, therefore, as little surprise to clear thinkers that the house of intellect leads the parade of culprits …
Self Defense For Women Lawyers: Enforcement Of Employment Rights, Giovanna M. Longo
Self Defense For Women Lawyers: Enforcement Of Employment Rights, Giovanna M. Longo
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
Employment and a concomitant opportunity to compete on the basis of individual merit for the rewards of achievement, whether they be money, power, prestige, personal satisfaction in a job well done, or the fulfillment of broad social aims, contribute to the assertion of legitimate human needs for independence and self-respect, and contribute to the expression and realization of individual potential. Women professionals and professional employers need to understand the applicable law regarding the proof of sex discrimination, what exceptions there are to prohibited sex discrimination, the procedures for enforcing that law and the benefits or detriments to be expected from …
