DelPo and Guerin have a combined 20 years of experience in employment law, and are coauthors of three other books on employment law topics for Nolo. They present an updated reference text for employers and human resource professionals covering the 20 most important federal employment laws, among them the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, Americans with Disabilities Act, Equal Pay Act, Fair Labor Standards Act, Family and Medical Leave Act, Pregnancy Discrimination Act, and Title VII of the Civil Rights Act. Written in accessible English, each chapter includes an overview of the law, its major provisions and what it prohibits, how the law is enforced, compliance, agencies for obtaining more resources, and state laws relating to the law. The third edition has been revised to include legislative changes, new court cases, and changes to regulation. No subject index is provided.
