The Importance of Job Descriptions
| |
| The EEOC recently published its Best Practices to assist employers in avoiding violations of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Americans with Disabilities Act as it relates to employees with caregiving responsibilities (read more about avoiding caregiver discrimination claims at instanthrsolutions.com). One of the recommendations is that employers develop "specific, job-related qualification standards" to ensure that hiring decisions are based on an applicant's qualifications, rather than on his or her personal caregiving responsibilities. The same holds true for any other protected category under federal equal employment opportunity laws, including race, color, national origin, religion, gender, disability, or age. |

How To Avoid Caregiver Discrimination Claims
| |
| In April 2009, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission ("EEOC") published its Best Practices to assist employers in complying with federal anti-discrimination laws as they relate to workers with caregiving responsibilities. The Best Practices are not binding on employers and do not make caregivers a newly protected category under federal law. Rather, these are suggestions from the EEOC to encourage employers to consider "the ways in which family-friendly workplace policies can improve workers' ability to balance caregiving responsibilities with work." The EEOC asserts that these recommendations may also benefit an employers' workers, customer-base and bottom line by improving employee retention, increasing profitability and reducing costs associated with high employee turnover. |
