• Family and Medical Leave Act
• Americans with Disabilities Act
• Age Discrimination Act of 1967
• Title VII
• Equal Pay Act

• Civil Rights Act of 1991
• Rehabilitation Act of 1973
• Vietnam Era Veterans Readjustment Assistance Act
Group Portion:
Georgia is a 41-year-old Hispanic female. She has been with A and B Associates for 7 years as a receptionist. The company has 97 employees. Recently, Georgia has been missing work because she has been taking care of her father, who has Alzheimer's disease. Georgia has been calling out of work a great deal because she is worried about leaving her father alone. She has been reprimanded on several occasions and given a warning that she will be terminated if she continues to miss work. Georgia needs her job because she helps cover the expenses of her father's home. She also recently found out that she is pregnant and is fearful that she will lose her health benefits if she is let go from the company.
In your group, please discuss the following:
• What is Georgia's recourse at the present time?
• What can she do, if anything, if she is terminated? (She is contemplating legal action if necessary.)
• What will happen to her health benefits if she is terminated from the company?
Individually, post an analysis of 5-6 paragraphs based on your group discussion:
• Discuss the laws and specific Acts (and the dates enacted) that may protect Georgia.
• Respond and comment on at least 2 other students' postings.
