  4. The Amendments & Discrimination Law (cont.) Amendment XIV: Section 1. All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside. No state shall make or enforceany law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, withoutdue processof law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction theequal protectionof the laws. >>> Permits employees to sue state and local government From Washington v. Davis (1976): “ ... the central purpose of the Equal Protection clause of the Fourteenth Amendment is the prevention of official conduct discrimination on the basis of race. It is also true that the Due Process clause of the Fifth Amendment contains an equal protection component prohibiting the United States from invidiously discriminating between individuals and groups.”

  5. Early Civil Rights Laws • § 1981. Equal rights under the law (formally CRA of 1866) • Statement of equal rights • All persons within the jurisdiction of the United States shall have the same right in every State and Territory to make and enforce contracts, to sue, be parties, give evidence, and to thefull and equal benefit of all laws and proceedings for the security of persons and property as is enjoyed by white citizens, and shall be subject to like punishment, pains, penalties, taxes, licenses, and exactions of every kind, and to no other. >>> Primarily used in cases of race discrimination (although it’s been interpreted very broadly to include national origin • No back pay limitations • No minimum requirement of 15 employees • Need to generate proof of discriminatory intent • Can apply to private organizations (passed under the 13th amendment – SC, 1968) Section 1981 “ ... prohibits only race discrimination, but the definition of “race” is broad and the statute reaches both public and private employers.” (see Jones v. Alfred. H. Mayer Co., 1968; Johnson v. Railway Express Agency, 1975)

  6. Early Civil Rights Laws (cont.) § 1983. Civil action for deprivation of rights (formally CRA of 1871) Every person who, under color of any statute, ordinance, regulation, custom, or usage, ofany Stateor Territory or the District of Columbia, subjects, or causes to be subjected, any citizen of the United States or other person within the jurisdiction thereof to thedeprivation of any rights, privileges, or immunities secured by the Constitution and laws, shall be liable to the party injured in an action at law, suit in equity, or other proper proceeding for redress, except that in any action brought against a judicial officer for an act or omission taken in such officer’s judicial capacity, injunctive relief shall not be granted unless a declaratory decree was violated or declaratory relief was unavailable. For the purposes of this section, any Act of Congress applicable exclusively to the District of Columbia shall be considered to be a statute of the District of Columbia. >>> Covers discrimination by State and local government organizations (simialr to 14 Amendment protections)

  8. Total EEOC Charges By Year Claims must be filed within 180 days of the alleged discriminatory behavior in states without EEO laws (non-deferral states), or within 300 days in states with EEO laws (deferral states; a state agency exists).

  9. ~ OFCCP Relevance ~ • I-O folks work a lot for federal contractors • • OFCCP has become aggressive in pursuing “class actions‟ rather than individual actions and highlighting companies that use selection procedures locally, by region, and nationwide • • This enforcement has has focused on hiring practices and resulted in record financial settlements. Likely that more I-Os folks are dealing with OFCCP enforcement today than in the past • • In recent years OFCCP has: • – Hired statisticians to conduct adverse impact analyses • – Hired psychometricians to evaluate the “adequacy‟ of selection procedures • – Adopted guidelines and strategies that may be controversial with contractors • and assessment professionals.

  10. Overview of OFCCP Investigative Process OFFCP compliance review (e.g., conducts desk audits using EEO-1 and AAP data). Also performs onsite reviews OFCCP attempts to gain voluntary compliance if a contractor is found to be in violation If voluntary compliance fails (agreement not reached), OFCCP can issue sanctions and fines Contractor can appeal OFCCP ruling; case goes to an Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) from the Department of Labor (DOL) The contractor must then appeal to the Secretary of Labor (and lose) in order to gain access to federal district court In federal district court, contractor bears the burden that a violation was not committed Adapted from: Dunleavy & Gutman, On the Legal Front:  OFCCP Settlement Review: What Was the Burden on Bank of America?  Get article here

  14. U.S. Supreme Court Background: Court established by Article III, Section 1 of the Constitution: "[t]he judicial Power of the United States, shall be vested in one Supreme Court, and in such inferior Courts as the Congress may from time to time ordain and establish.” The Act also created the federal circuit courts and the federal district courts, the Office of the Attorney General, and granted the President the right to nominate justices for appointment to the United States Supreme Court with the advice and consent of the Senate. In its 1st year, the Court consisted of 6 justices (one Chief Justice and 5 associate justices). The present composition of one Chief Justice and eight Associate Justices was established under an Act passed in 1948 (28 U.S.C. 1) Relatively weak branch of government in the early years

  15. Reasons Why the Court Takes a Case • Conflicting opinions between the circuit courts • 2) Lower court decision that conflicts with previous Supreme Court ruling • 3) Issues of constitutional importance
