You have been hired as a management consultant by a large company to examine the company’s business decisions regarding employee protections. The applicable laws are federal anti-discrimination laws, federal health and safety laws, and employer firing practices related to the employment-at-will (EAW) doctrine.
Analyze, identify, and explain recent legislation, within the last 10 years (can be over 10 years but then find recent caselaw to exemplify it), that helps to protect employees from discrimination in the workplace. Provide at least two federal legislative protections. Provide some insight when the federal legislation conflicts with the state.
Explain the EAW doctrine and all exceptions to the doctrine.
