The Auditing Imperative For Automated Hiring, Ifeoma Ajunwa
AI-DR Collection
The high bar of proof to demonstrate either a disparate treatment or disparate impact cause of action under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, coupled with the “black box” nature of many automated hiring systems, renders the detection and redress of bias in such algorithmic systems difficult. This Article, with contributions at the intersection of administrative law, employment & labor law, and law & technology, makes the central claim that the automation of hiring both facilitates and obfuscates employment discrimination. That phenomenon and the deployment of intellectual property law as a shield against the scrutiny of automated systems combine …

Reflection On The Philosophy Behind The Exemption To Notice Of Employment Termination A Study In The Light Of The Jordanian Labour Law 1996, Firas Kasassbeh
UAEU Law Journal
Under the Jordanian Labour Act 1996, it is not permissible for the employer to terminate the employee’s contract without giving the labourer/ employee at least one month notice before the date of termination. This is because sudden dismissal may cause hardship on the employee such as finding him/herself unemployed. However, there are cases where the employer is exempted from giving such notice due to either the nature of the contract (such as in the case of definite period contracts and the case of employment under probation), or the nature of termination (such as in the cases where the termination is …

Hybrid Federalism And The Employee Right To Disconnect,

Pepperdine University
Hybrid Federalism And The Employee Right To Disconnect, Paul M. Secunda
Pepperdine Law Review
The federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) administers specific workplace and health standards that generally and expressly preempt the entire field of workplace safety and health law. However, where such federal OSHA standards do not exist or states have developed their own approved OSHA plans, OSHA does not merely set a regulatory floor either. A type of “hybrid federalism” has been established, meaning a strong federal-based field preemption approach to labor and employment law issues, but tied to a conflict preemption approach. Applying this hybrid preemption approach to the employee right to disconnect problem provides the best opportunity to …

Protecting The Rights And Wellbeing Of People With Disabilities During The Covid-19 Pandemic, Elizabeth Pendo
Chapters in Books
The COVID-19 pandemic has exposed and exacerbated significant inequities experienced by people with disabilities. It has also emphasized the value of legal protections against discrimination based on disability. The Americans with Disabilities Act was enacted 30 years ago to eliminate discrimination against people with disabilities and ensure equal opportunity across major areas of American life (ADA, 2008). Together with an earlier law, the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (Rehabilitation Act, 2012), this landmark civil rights law impacts a broad range of issues raised by the COVID-19 pandemic and protects a large and growing number of Americans. This Chapter focuses on application …
Collective Representation And Bargaining For Self-Employed Workers: Final Report,

Collective Representation And Bargaining For Self-Employed Workers: Final Report, Sara Slinn
Commissioned Reports, Studies and Public Policy Documents
This report seeks to identify and discuss feasible models for collective representation and bargaining for self-employed contractors in the federal jurisdiction. The term “self-employed contractors” refers to workers who would be classified as “independent contractors” under the Canada Labour Code (CLC) Part I and, consequently, be excluded from the ambit of CLC collective representation and bargaining provisions. The study utilizes fieldwork, in the form of interviews and focus group discussions, in four sectors of interest, namely, road transportation, broadcast media, technology, and telecommunications, in order to explore and assess potential models for statutory collective representation and bargaining for self-employed workers. …

The Human Capital Management Movement In U.S. Corporate Law, George S. Georgiev
Articles
Corporations cannot exist without workers, yet workers are not part of the formal or informal governance structures established by U.S. corporate law. Commentators and policymakers have bemoaned this state of affairs for decades, to little avail. Since the mid-2010s, however, a concept related to workers, human capital management (HCM), has become an increasingly prominent part of U.S. corporate governance. HCM is premised on the notion that workers can be viewed as "assets" and ought to be managed just as carefully as firms manage physical and capital assets. In practice, HCM is an expansive concept that has been used to refer …

Deputizing The Frontline: Enforcing Workplace Rights In A Post-Pandemic Economy, Elizabeth J. Kennedy
Hofstra Labor & Employment Law Journal
The COVID-19 pandemic exploded against a backdrop of federal retrenchment and repeal of workplace rights and protections for frontline workers, casting a spotlight on systemic racial inequity. While states and cities emerged as the last line of defense for wage standards in the United States, the sweeping application of mandatory arbitration agreements and restrictions on class actions makes enforcing those new rights difficult, if not impossible. A forecasted post-pandemic recession will further undermine the ability of workers to advocate for higher wages and diminish the capacity of enforcement agencies to combat wage theft. Given the enormity of this crisis, any …
