Baucom v. Holiday Companies, Inc., No. 05-1393, Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals (November 10, 2005)
Articles Discussing Case:
Decrease in hours is not an "adverse action" (pdf).
Ogletree Deakins • December 19, 2005
The federal appellate court with jurisdiction
over Missouri employers recently
held that an employer did not
engage in unlawful discrimination by
reducing an employee’s hours. According
to the Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals,
a minor decrease in an employee’s
hours does not constitute an adverse
employment action.
