U.S. Diversity Law and Organizational Compliance

In the United States, companies of all sizes, especially those with more than 15 employees, must adhere to nondiscrimination practices. Even if the company is so small that some of Title VII doesn't apply, it is incumbent upon the manager to be familiar with federal antidiscrimination laws, including those relevant to gender, race and ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, age, and disabilities.
