Maternity Leave: Taking Sex Differences Into Account, Nancy E. Dowd Apr 1986

Maternity Leave: Taking Sex Differences Into Account, Nancy E. Dowd

UF Law Faculty Publications

This Article focuses on restructuring the workplace in the context of maternity leave. Although most women are no longer, and, indeed, generally cannot be required to take maternity leave, many are not guaranteed leave or may be provided only with inadequate leave. A minority of states have addressed this problem by enacting statutes requiring that all employers provide job-protected maternity leave. Two of the statutes, the California and Montana provisions, have been challenged as discriminatory under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the equal protection clause of the 14th Amendment, and the Supreme Court has recently …

Comparable Worth Claims Under Title Vii: Does The Evidence Support An Inference Of Discriminatory Intent?—American Federation Of State, County, And Municipal Employees V. Washington, 770 F.2d 1401 (9th Cir. 1985), Brendan Mangan Apr 1986

Comparable Worth Claims Under Title Vii: Does The Evidence Support An Inference Of Discriminatory Intent?—American Federation Of State, County, And Municipal Employees V. Washington, 770 F.2d 1401 (9th Cir. 1985), Brendan Mangan

Washington Law Review

This Note suggests that comparable worth theory, as a means of proving discrimination under Title VII, has been fully explored and charted, and observes that comparable worth claims have gained virtually no ground in legal battles against sex-based wage discrimination. Where courts have upheld such claims, their decisions have turned on the accompanying evidence of discriminatory intent, rather than on the inference of intent drawn from comparable worth studies. Moreover, since many factors provide plausible explanations of wage differentials, courts are correct in rejecting comparable worth claims that are unsupported by additional evidence of intentional discrimination. The Ninth Circuit was …

Moral Hazard And Merit Rating Over Time: An Analysis Of Optimal Intertemporal Wage Structures, W. Kip Viscusi Apr 1986

Moral Hazard And Merit Rating Over Time: An Analysis Of Optimal Intertemporal Wage Structures, W. Kip Viscusi

Vanderbilt Law School Faculty Publications

In situations of uncertain worker productivity and risk aversion, labor market contracts have a dual objective of promoting incentives and risk spreading. A trade-off between these objectives is present in single period models as well as in the multi-period models that were the focus of this paper. When there is more than a single period, there will be a divergence between the within period expected productivity and the spot expected wage rate as the wage structure is utilized to promote the creation of work incentives. In effect, firms will merit rate workers on an actuarially unfair basis when viewed within …

Integrity And Circumspection: The Labor Law Vision Of Bernard D. Meltzer, Theodore J. St. Antoine Jan 1986

Integrity And Circumspection: The Labor Law Vision Of Bernard D. Meltzer, Theodore J. St. Antoine

Articles

Bernard Meltzer has testified under oath that he "rarely take[s] absolute positions." The record bears him out. While his colleagues among labor law scholars often strain to demonstrate that the labor relations statutes and even the Constitution support their hearts' desires, the typical Meltzer stance is one of cool detachment, pragmatic assessment, and cautious, balanced judgment. The "itch to do good," Meltzer has remarked wryly, "is a doubtful basis for jurisdiction" -or, he would likely add, for any other legal conclusion. In this brief commentary I propose to examine the Meltzer approach to four broad areas of labor law: (1) …

Should Representation Elections Be Governed By Principles Or Expediency?, Mary Ellen Krug, Michele Gammer Jan 1986

Should Representation Elections Be Governed By Principles Or Expediency?, Mary Ellen Krug, Michele Gammer

Seattle University Law Review

Should the National Labor Relations Board' set aside representation elections because one or more parties has tried to influence the voting with misrepresentation of facts or law? Although the Board is responsible for ensuring fair elections, in Midland National Life Insurance Co. it embraced a rule inconsistent with this statutory responsibility, rejecting the Hollywood Ceramics Co. rule and narrowly limiting Board review of campaign misrepresentations. This Article examines the Midland standard in light of the Board's statutory duty to protect the right of employees to a free and fair choice of collective bargaining representatives. The Article reviews the historical development …

The Prospects For Labor Law Reform In Poland, Maria Matey Jan 1986

The Prospects For Labor Law Reform In Poland, Maria Matey

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

A complex combination of socioeconomic factors have produced a situation in Poland in the mid-1980s which is in urgent need of reform. This need for change extends to the complicated and controversial subject of labor law. It is the purpose of this Perspective to set forth the current status of labor law in Poland and to analyze the prospects for possible reform. There are currently three approaches to labor law reform in Poland. The first is held by the government, the second by labor law scientists, and the third by the trade unions created after 1982. These approaches include wide-ranging …
