Advice for Small Business
I have been recognized by the President’s Committee on Equal Employment Opportunity as the National Entrepreneur of the Year. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce has awarded me their top honor, the Blue Chip Enterprise Award. Steve Forbes included me, along with Donald Trump and Tom Monaghan, as one of the Twelve Great American Business Successes in his 2000 book.

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.

Searching for employment opportunities is hard work. It is even more difficult to land a job after finding the right opportunity that matches up with your talents, skills, experience, and education.

Year after year, employment lawsuits lodged against American businesses continue to skyrocket, with no end in sight.
