am a post graduate student, so I need two legal updates from same chapter. I attached PDF chapter, so please open. Legal Updates A: From Topic “Overview of Employment Discrimination” Chapter Legal Updates B: : From Topic “Overview of Employment Discrimination” Chapter Requirements: Total page 1+1=2 Font: Times New Roman, Font Size: 12, Paragraph: single or 1.5, No bolt. Please include APA referencing style. No need to put cover page, I will make myself. Thanks Please follow instructions as below Legal update A: On January 19, I sent an announcement about the different types of laws affecting HR in the US. As a reminder, at the federal level (which we are concerned about in this course) there are the following types of laws:
- Federal laws – laws that are passed by both houses of Congress that are applicable in all 50 states and US territories.
- Executive order – law passed by order of the President. Executive orders on employment matters most often affect federal employees only (which is why we didn’t include them in the activity). Many times, executive orders are used as a “motivation” for the passage of federal laws.
- Statutory laws – interpretation of federal law developed by federal agencies, like the EEOC. Rules, that have the same power as the law itself, are created through the power the federal government has invested in the agency. This is also known as agency law.
- Judicial law – interpretation of federal law by judges, including the Supreme Court. It is impossible for the “letter of the law” to be all inclusive when it is passed by Congress, so courts are used to define and interpret intent. An excellent recent example is the recent ruling by the Supreme Court that gender protection under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 includes protection for sexual preference and gender identity.
The bad thing about textbooks, especially those in law, is that they are practically out of date as soon as they are published. The Walsh book is no exception. So much has happened in the world of HR law since it was published, and that is what made me create this assignment.
YOUR ASSIGNMENT
Your task is to pick a topic from the chapter, and do a legal update for it. Specifically, I want you to look for changes in the law since January 2021 for the 4 areas listed above. For judicial law, focus on the federal district courts and higher. In your submission, indicate the changes that have occurred to law at each level. Be specific, include exact laws, executive orders and/or cases. Be sure to include citations in your submission. I strongly recommend that you use the DOL, EEOC and SHRM websites to help focus your search. Legal Update B Graduate students in MG566 are required to differentiate their work from undergraduate students by conducting one (1) additional legal update per section. These analyses will occur in each section. On January 19, I sent an announcement about the different types of laws affecting HR in the US. As a reminder, at the federal level (which we are concerned about in this course) there are the following types of laws:
