Question 1.

Access the EEOC website. Document a lawsuit that involved particularly egregious actions but that likely did not receive any significant media attention. What happened? Describe the allegations and resolutions of the cases. Describe and discuss the allegations and resolutions of the cases.

Question 2.

Many of the EEOC cases presented in this unit are egregious, offensive, and obviously illegal. Choose a case from the unit and provide a brief summary of it. Discuss the organizational factors (culture, lack of training, communication styles, organizational structure, job design, leadership, power, historical context, retaliation, etc) that existed at the time of the case that would allow such practices to happen and, in some cases, to persist for extended periods. In multiple cases, more than one person was involved (HR, assistant manager, manager, district, or area manager). Discuss why no one in the management chain intervened. Support your answer.

Question 3.

Describe the procedures required to file a discrimination lawsuit under the disparate impact and disparate treatment theories. How is adverse impact determined? Provide a scenario illustrating evidence of adverse impact in an employment decision.

Question 4

Based on your reading of the major EEO laws, discuss ways to minimize the likelihood of discrimination and maximize the benefits of diversity in the workplace.
