Taylor & Francis Adverse Impact and Test Validation A
Book SynopsisAdverse impact analyses and test validation promote social justice and equity. Employers who unknowingly use invalid tests or recruitment procedures that have an adverse impact are reducing minority and/or female representation in their workforce, unfairly screening out qualified workers and (worst of all) just plain discriminating. Dan Biddle's Adverse Impact and Test Validation provides you with analyses that allow you to identify which of your selection procedures have adverse impact. The validation steps will help you decide whether to keep the selection procedure (because it's valid), change it, or stop using it altogether. This second edition contains new material on using multiple regression to evaluate pay practices and provides step-by-step instructions for using SPSS or Excel for evaluating your company's pay practices for possible inequities. New content on how to define Internet applicants and set up defensible Basic Qualifications (BQs) for online recruiting will help employers ensure compliance with EEO regulations and screen in qualified applicants. Specific guidelines for developing and validating written job knowledge tests, such as those used for police and fire promotional testing, have also been included in this new edition. The downloadable resources include tools (which may be used on a trial evaluation basis) describing several of the functions described in the book, including Adverse Impact Toolkità , Test Validation and Analysis Programà (TVAPà ), Guidelines Oriented Job Analysisà (GOJAà ) Manual, and Content Validity Checklists. This highly pragmatic guide goes beyond the concepts, theories and ideas behind adverse impact and test validation. It not only explains what to do but crucially, also shows you how to do it. The second edition has been expanded to include two brand new chapters with a new Appendix and comes with new editions of the accompanying software. As a means of protecting your organization from litigation, damage to employee relations and to your corporate reputation, Adverse Impact and Test Validation is a 'must-have' purchase for human resource professionals, testing and recruitment specialists.Trade ReviewReviews from the first edition: 'Before the resurgence of the civil rights movement in the middle of the twentieth century, many employers had relegated the development of employee selection procedures to persons of the technician level. This was reinforced by some academics employment selection "cookbooks". These activities led to the use of many improper selection procedures that not only hurt the employment prospects of many groups, but also served no useful purpose for the employer. As new civil rights acts became effective and guidelines regarding employee selection were promulgated, it was quickly realized by both employers and psychologists-both in industry and academia-that the technical issues were far beyond the technician level. In fact even today, some of the issues are so complicated that only a small minority of psychologists can rightly claim to really understand them. Dr Biddle's book is an excellent effort to bridge the gap between the technical and the practical. The procedures presented are informed by the most relevant technical information and by present legal requirements. This book is best suited for non-technicians who have at least a general foundation of relevant technical knowledge.' Mary L.

Taylor & Francis Ltd The Judiciary Discrimination Law and Statutory
Book SynopsisIn 1856, the US Supreme Court denied Dred Scott, now free of slavery, his Constitutional rights, solely because he was black. According to the Court, when the Constitution was drafted, some 60 years earlier, its authors would not have intended that a subordinate and inferior class of beings' qualified as citizens of the United States. Thus, the meaning of language drafted over half a century before was frozen in time.This case, perhaps more than any other, demonstrates that the matter of statutory interpretation is critical, technical, and, sometimes, highly emotive. The case is not a mere nugget from history to indulge our disgust with values of another age, and with it a satisfaction of our progress to today's higher moral ground. It is the unfortunate case that the senior courts of England continue to produce highly contentious interpretations of our equality and discrimination laws. This book examines these cases from the perspective of statutory inteTrade Review‘This is beautifully written and develops a thoughtful, innovative and interesting argument on a matter of considerable importance.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Discrimination and the Law 2e
Book SynopsisDiscrimination and the Law provides an exploration and evaluation of discrimination law, focusing primarily on discrimination in employment. Introducing readers to the concepts of equality and the historical origins of discrimination law, Malcolm Sargeant explores the wider political, social and economic contexts through which discrimination law has evolved. The second edition has been thoroughly updated and includes a new chapter considering discrimination against trade unionists, discrimination against non-standard' workers as well as the public sector equality duty. The book begins with an examination of what is meant by such concepts as equality and discrimination followed by an analysis of the Equality Act 2010 and the impact of EU and international law. All the protected characteristics contained in the Equality Act 2010 are critically considered (age, disability, gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or beTable of ContentsDetailed ContentsPreface xList of tables xiGlossary of acronyms xiiTable of cases xiiiTable of legislation xvii 1 Equality 11.1 Purpose 21.2 How fair is Britain? 21.3 Equality 31.4 Stereotyping 61.5 Does discrimination still take place? 71.6 The grounds for discrimination 91.7 Multiple discrimination 101.8 Discrimination outside employment 121.9 Reflections 14 2 European perspectives 162.1 Brexit 172.2 The European Union 172.3 The Equality Directives 182.4 Facilities, goods and services 252.5 Human rights 262.6 Reflections 28 3 The Equality Act 2010 303.1 Introduction 313.2 The protected characteristics 313.3 Prohibited conduct 323.4 Burden of proof 393.5 Equality of terms 413.6 Remedies 413.7 Liability of employers and employees 423.8 Relationships that have come to an end 423.9 Aiding contraventions 433.10 Contracts 433.11 The Enterprise and Regulatory Reform Act 2013 433.12 Reflections 444 Age and ageism 46 4.1 Introduction 47 4.2 Population ageing 48 4.3 Attitudes to age 49 4.4 The Framework Directive 50 4.5 Young workers 52 4.6 Unlawful actions 53 4.7 Direct and indirect discrimination 54 4.8 The Equality Act 2010 56 4.9 Reflections 58 5 Disability 60 5.1 Introduction 61 5.2 The United Nations Convention 63 5.3 The Equality Act 2010 64 5.4 The meaning of disability 64 5.5 Unfavourable treatment 70 5.6 Duty to make adjustments 70 5.7 Positive action 72 5.8 Recruitment 72 5.9 Reflections 73 6 Pregnancy and maternity 75 6.1 Introduction 76 6.2 Discrimination 77 6.3 The Pregnant Workers Directive 79 6.4 Protection in the United Kingdom 81 6.5 The Maternity and Parental Leave etc. Regulations 1999 81 6.6 Employment rights 82 6.7 Protection from detriment and dismissal 84 6.8 Return to work 86 6.9 Shared parental leave 86 6.10 Reflections 87 7 Race, colour, ethnicity and migrant workers 89 7.1 Introduction 90 7.2 The Race Directive 91 7.3 The Equality Act 2010 92 7.4 Migrant workers 96 7.5 Reflections 103 8 Religion or belief 105 8.1 Introduction 106 8.2 Religion 106 8.3 Belief 107 8.4 The Equality Act 2010 108 8.5 Occupational requirements relating to organised religion and belief 110 8.6 Manifestation of religious belief 111 8.7 Sexual orientation 1128.8 The European Convention on Human Rights 113 8.9 The European Court of Human Rights 115 8.10 Reflections 117 9 Sex equality 119 9.1 Introduction 120 9.2 Women and men 120 9.3 The European Union 122 9.4 The Equality Act 2010 123 9.5 Marriage or civil partnership 124 9.6 Older women 125 9.7 Equality of terms 127 9.8 Women on boards 131 9.9 Gender pay gap information and discussions about pay 132 9.10 Reflections 133 10 Sexual orientation and gender reassignment 136 10.1 Introduction 137 10.2 Sexual orientation 137 10.3 LGBT 137 10.4 Gender reassignment 140 10.5 Marriage or civil partnership 142 10.6 Reflections 143 11 Discrimination in the workplace 145 11.1 Trade union membership and activities 146 11.2 Non-standard working 148 11.3 Public sector equality duty 153 11.4 How to prevent discrimination in the workplace 154 11.5 Reflections 156 Appendix – Equality Act 2010 Part 2 158 Bibliography 168 Index 172

JCB Mohr (Paul Siebeck) Vielfalt oder Chaos - Aktuelle Probleme und
Book SynopsisDas Arbeitsvertragsrecht setzt sich aus einer Vielzahl an nicht abgestimmten, zunehmend unionsrechtlich determinierten Einzelgesetzen zusammen. Doch ist es wirklich ein kunstvoll geordnetes Chaos, ein Irrgarten des Rechts, wie es der 59. Deutsche Juristentag mit den berühmten Worten Pufendorfs meinte? Oder sollte nicht besser das Wort Chaos durch Vielfalt ersetzt werden, in welcher sich schlicht die facettenreichen Fragestellungen einer immer komplexer werdenden Arbeitswelt widerspiegeln? Mit einigen aktuellen Thematiken - angefangen von der Kettenbefristung zur Vertretung, der internationalen Zuständigkeit im arbeitsgerichtlichen Beschlussverfahren, dem Anwendungsvorrang unionaler Grundrechte, über das Arbeiten nach Wunsch, dem neuen Beschäftigtendatenschutz bis hin zur Bedeutung des § 174 BGB - haben sich die Teilnehmer der 2. Arbeitsrechtlichen Assistententagung im Juli 2012 kritisch auseinandergesetzt.

JCB Mohr (Paul Siebeck) Negative Tarifvertragsfreiheit im deutschen und
Book SynopsisIm deutschen Recht entfalten Tarifnormen ihre unmittelbare und zwingende Wirkung zwar grundsätzlich nur zwischen den beiderseits Tarifgebundenen. Jedoch kennt dieser Grundsatz einige Ausnahmen. Teilweise erheben Tarifnormen bereits für sich genommen einen Geltungsanspruch über den Kreis der Verbandsmitglieder heraus, in anderen Fällen ordnet ein staatlicher Erstreckungsakt diese Wirkung an. Es stellt sich jeweils die Frage, wie weit die Freiheit der Außenseiter reicht, ihre Arbeitsbeziehungen in selbstbestimmter Wahrnehmung der eigenen Interessen zu gestalten. Felix Hartmann führt den Außenseiterschutz konsequent auf ein privatrechtlich-mandatarisches Grundverständnis der Tarifautonomie zurück. Er setzt sich dabei auch mit den Vorgaben des Europarechts und mit Tarifsystemen anderer mitgliedstaatlicher Rechtsordnungen auseinander. Auf diese Weise kommt er für eine Vielzahl von Praxisproblemen zu neuen Lösungen.

JCB Mohr (Paul Siebeck) Unternehmensmitbestimmung, Corporate Governance
Book SynopsisDie Unternehmensmitbestimmung, die gesetzlich vorgegebene Vertretung der Arbeitnehmer in den Aufsichtsräten großer Unternehmen, ist eine Besonderheit der deutschen Rechtsordnung. Sie ist Teil der Corporate Governance, das heißt des Systems guter Unternehmensführung und -kontrolle. Ziel des Deutschen Corporate Governance Kodex (DCGK) ist, wesentliche Regeln guter Unternehmensführung börsennotierter Unternehmen darzustellen und zu fördern. Nicole Gietzen untersucht erstmals umfassend das Verhältnis der Unternehmensmitbestimmung zu den Regeln des Kodex und legt dar, dass die für mitbestimmte Unternehmen geltenden Besonderheiten im DCGK nur unzureichend berücksichtigt werden. Es besteht eine Mitbestimmungslücke, die verhindert, dass der Kodex sein Ziel erreicht. Zudem bestehen Widersprüche zwischen den Mitbestimmungsgesetzen und dem Kodex. Anhand einzelner Vorschriften des Kodex wird dargestellt, welche Reformen des Kodex bzw. der Mitbestimmungsgesetze erforderlich sind, um diese Defizite zu beseitigen.

JCB Mohr (Paul Siebeck) Streiken im europäischen Grundrechtsgefüge: Zum
Book SynopsisIn Europa ist eine zunehmende Pluralisierung normativer Ordnungen zu beobachten, die das Recht vor neue Herausforderungen stellt - vor allem im Bereich des Grundrechtsschutzes. Innerhalb des "Stimmengewirrs" der unterschiedlichen Spruchorgane zur Durchsetzung der jeweiligen Garantien sind die einzelnen Verfassungsstaaten bestrebt, ihre Autonomie zu wahren, können sich der zunehmenden Vernetzung aber nicht gänzlich entziehen. Auch Deutschland steht vor der Frage, ob es seine ausgefeilte Grundrechtssystematik dieser Entwicklung preisgeben will. Gabriele Buchholtz hat sich diesem Problem im Hinblick auf das "Politikum" Streik gewidmet. Welche Konsequenzen sich insoweit aus dem "europäischen Grundrechtsgefüge", vor allem aus Art. 6 Nr. 4 ESC und dessen Anwendung durch den EGMR und den EuGH ergeben, ist weitgehend unklar. Vor diesem Hintergrund entwirft Gabriele Buchholtz eine Kollisionsregel für das europäische Grundrechtsgefüge und zeigt auf, wie die pluralen Rechtsbeziehungen einem harmonischen Ausgleich zugeführt werden können.

JCB Mohr (Paul Siebeck) Der persönliche Anwendungsbereich des Gesetzes
Book SynopsisDie Befristung von Arbeitsverhältnissen von wissenschaftlichem Personal an Hochschulen ist seit 2007 im WissZeitVG geregelt. Eine Entscheidung des Bundesarbeitsgerichts aus dem Jahre 2011 hat im Hinblick auf den persönlichen Anwendungsbereich der Regelung zu erheblicher Rechtsunsicherheit geführt. Nach dieser Entscheidung zählen Mitarbeiter der Hochschulen nur dann zum wissenschaftlichen Personal, wenn sie die Möglichkeit haben, im Rahmen ihrer Dienstaufgaben selbstständig schöpferisch tätig zu werden und einen eigenen innovativen Forschungsbeitrag zu leisten. Thomas Raab zeigt auf, dass diese Definition des Begriffs "wissenschaftliches Personal" weder der Entstehungsgeschichte des Gesetzes noch deren Zwecksetzung gerecht wird, den Hochschulen zum Zwecke der Förderung des wissenschaftlichen Nachwuchses die rechtssichere Befristung von Arbeitsverhältnissen zu ermöglichen. Er liefert zudem einen Vorschlag für eine gesetzliche Konkretisierung.

JCB Mohr (Paul Siebeck) Die Übertragbarkeit der
Book SynopsisDie Societas Europaea ist in Deutschland seit ihrer Einführung ein Erfolgsmodell - nicht zuletzt, weil sie es gestattet, durch Vereinbarung mit der Arbeitnehmerseite von den ansonsten zwingenden Mitbestimmungsregimen abzuweichen.Können auch Tochtergesellschaften einer Societas Europaea von dieser Flexibilität profitieren? Moritz Maier untersucht diese Frage de lege lata und de lege ferenda. Dabei vermisst er auch den rechtlichen Graubereich der vertraglichen Mitbestimmungsgestaltung in autonom-nationalstaatlich verfassten Gesellschaften.Es zeigt sich, dass das deutsche Recht der Unternehmensmitbestimmung die Anforderungen einer modernen Konzernleitung in einem zusehends zusammenwachsenden europäischen Wirtschaftsraum verfehlt. Gleichzeitig spricht die Verfügbarkeit praktikabler Umgehungsmöglichkeiten für eine Modernisierung des Gesetzeswerks. Auf dieser Basis entwickelt Moritz Maier ein zweistufiges Reformkonzept zur schrittweisen Einführung der Verhandlungslösung in deutsche Konzerne und stellt einen konkreten Gesetzgebungsvorschlag zur Diskussion.

JCB Mohr (Paul Siebeck) Arbeitsvölkerrecht
Book SynopsisDer Begriff des Arbeitsvölkerrechts umfasst nach gängiger Definition die Summe aller Rechtsquellen, die auf völkerrechtlicher Ebene die Rechtsbeziehungen abhängiger Arbeit regeln. Das angezeigte Buch beschränkt sich nicht auf die (formalen) Grenzen dieser Definition, sondern will auch andere relevante Rechtsquellen und Rechtsentwicklungen einbeziehen, die auf internationaler Ebene Auswirkungen auf die Arbeitsbeziehungen haben. Dargestellt werden etwa das Recht der Vereinten Nationen, der ILO, des Europarats (ESC und EMRK), arbeitsrechtliche Bezüge in Handels- und Investitionsschutzabkommen, Bestandteile des Transnational Labour Law und Teilbereiche des Wirtschaftsvölkerrechts bzw. des internationalen Wirtschaftsrechts, soweit sie arbeitsrechtliche Bezüge aufweisen. Dabei soll es nicht nur um die Darstellung der gesetzlichen bzw. völkervertraglichen Grundlagen dieser Rechtsbeziehungen gehen, sondern insbesondere auch um ihre Rezeption in der Rechtsprechung innerhalb des europäischen Mehrebenensystems. Für die Rechtspraxis ist die Analyse und Darstellung der Rezeption dieser Rechtsakte in gerichtlichen Entscheidungen, vornehmlich in der Rechtsprechung des EGMR, des EuGH, des BVerfG und des BAG, von entscheidender Bedeutung. Ergänzt wird dies um die praktische Handhabung des Arbeitsvölkerrechts im arbeitsgerichtlichen Verfahren. Mit Beiträgen von: Susanne Baer, Gabriele Buchholtz, Wolfgang Däubler, Johannes Heuschmid, François Biltgen, Robert Räuchle, Monika Schlachter, Benedikt Schmidt, Jürgen Treber, Daniel Ulber, Reingard Zimmer Rezensionen: "Wer sich im Arbeitsvölkerrecht schlau machen will, der kommt um dieses Buch nicht herum." Gregor Thüsing RdA 2020, 64 "Der umfangreiche Sammelband ist ein wichtiger Beitrag über das Bemühen des Arbeitsvölkerrechts um 'soziale Gerechtigkeit' (Präambel, Verfassung der Internationalen Arbeitsorganisation) sowie seine praktische Anwendung, insbesondere in arbeitsgerichtlichen Verfahren." Anne Trebilcock EuZA 2019, 538-540

JCB Mohr (Paul Siebeck) Haftung der Gewerkschaft für Arbeitskämpfe
Book SynopsisArbeitskämpfe verursachen Schäden. Zumindest der betroffene Arbeitgeber kann bei einem rechtswidrigen Arbeitskampf Schadensersatz von der Gewerkschaft verlangen. Die zahlreichen Erklärungsversuche aus der Vergangenheit können jedoch viele Detailfragen nicht beantworten: Warum haften Arbeitgeberverbände und Gewerkschaften auf unterschiedlicher Grundlage? Und müssen auch Aktivisten, die politische Streiks organisieren, die Schäden ersetzen? Paula Johanna Zschoche bewertet nach eingehender Auswertung des Forschungsstandes die Haftungsfrage grundlegend neu. Denn die besondere Rolle der kampfführenden Verbände stellt ein spezielles Gestaltungsrecht dar, das zu einer Sonderverbindung mit den Vertragsparteien führt. Auf diese Weise bettet sie die Haftung für Arbeitskämpfe in ein privatrechtliches Verständnis des Arbeitskampfes ein.

JCB Mohr (Paul Siebeck) Haftung leitender Angestellter: Business Judgment
Book SynopsisDer Begriff des leitenden Angestellten ist gesetzlich nicht einheitlich definiert. Einigkeit besteht dahingehend, dass ein leitender Angestellter auf Grundlage eines Arbeitsvertrages tätig ist und für den Arbeitgeber unternehmerische Funktionen in eigener Verantwortung und mit einem erheblichen eigenen Entscheidungsspielraum übernimmt. Angesichts dieser Zwitterstellung stellt sich die Frage nach der Haftung des leitenden Angestellten. Anna Kuhn untersucht, ob das Arbeitnehmerprivileg und die Business Judgment Rule jeweils auf leitende Angestellte Anwendung finden und in welchem Verhältnis diese Haftungsbeschränkungen zueinander stehen. Anschließend analysiert sie, ob eine Pflicht oder eine Obliegenheit zum Abschluss einer D&O-Versicherung besteht und ob sich das (Nicht-)Bestehen der Versicherung auf die Haftung auswirkt.
