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 …

Holland V. Boeing Co.--Extending Protection Against Employment Discrimination To Transfers Of Handicapped Employees, Joanne Whitehead

Seattle University Law Review

In Holland v. Boeing Co., the Washington Supreme Court considered for the first time a handicap discrimination case under the unfair employment practices section of the Washington Law Against Discrimination. In construing the statute, the Holland court emphasized that the handicapped are inherently different from other classes antidiscrimination legislation traditionally protects. The court then imposed upon the defendant-employer a high duty of accommodating the disabilities of handicapped employees. Thus, the decision provides important recognition of disabled workers' civil rights.

Kentucky Law Survey: Education: Teachers’ Rights, Keith Graham Hanley, Robert G. Schwemm

Law Faculty Scholarly Articles

Tenure occupies an important place in the mind of any new teacher. During the past survey year, the Kentucky courts have demonstrated that this status is not only important to teachers generally; it is essential to continued job security. The aegis of tenure provides not only the substance of teachers’ rights but also the procedure used to protect those rights.

Discharged teachers have alleged violations of the 14th amendment of the U.S. Constitution in both its equal protection and due process aspects and violations of the Kentucky constitution. However, in each instance the courts have summarily dismissed these claims, preferring …

Affirmative Action Programs In Social Service Agencies: Status Of The Female M.S.W., Geraldine Ann Berg

Dissertations and Theses

Job status and salary inequities between men and women have only recently been documented. The federal government, over the past few decades, through various acts and executive orders, has created legislation to prohibit discrimination based on race, sex, color, religion or national origin in all employment practices. The question is to what extent this legislation has permeated social service agencies and affected their employment patterns, particularly with respect to administrative positions.

In 1976, the Women's Issues Committee of the Oregon Chapter of the National Association of Social Workers (NASW), addressed this question by initiating a study of social work employment …

Industrial Democracy: America's Unfulfilled Promise, Clyde W. Summers

Cleveland State Law Review

We have relied so completely on collective bargaining that we have given almost no thought to other ways of moving toward the goal of industrial democracy. Indeed, there is almost an instinctive reaction to any suggestions of alternatives. We must now face the unwelcome fact that collective bargaining is incomplete, and we must fill the places it has not reached. This article has presents not so much proposals to be adopted, but possibilities to be explored. The purpose here is not to reach conclusions, but to urge a beginning.

Union Representation At Investigatory Interviews: The Subsequent Development Of Weingarten, Kathy A. Wireman

Cleveland State Law Review

NLRB v. J. Weingarten, Inc. represented a major breakthrough in the area of employee due process rights by establishing the basic framework of the right to representation. However, many questions remain unresolved as to exact parameters of this right. The undetermined issues involved such matters as invocation of the right, waiver, duty of fair representation, the scope of the employer's responsibility, the role of the union, and extension of the right to employees not represented by a union. Some of these questions have been dealt with by the National Labor Relations Board (hereinafter the Board), the courts, and arbitrators. This …

Whither The Commission On Human Rights: A Report After The 35th Session, Gerson Smoger

Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law

The statement that the Commission on Human Rights "functions as the focal point of the United Nation's concentration on the international observance of human rights" is fraught with definitional inconsistencies. Throughout its existence one of the main problems faced by the members of the Commission has been to agree upon the appropriate limits of the expression "human rights." The question arises whether the term includes the right of a retired school teacher to speak out against his country's employment practices or his entitlement to receive social security after his departure from the teaching force. If these are both considered to …
