Report Link Common Sense Advice On FRD.Fisher & Phillips, LLP - October 05, 2007 "Family responsibility discrimination" has been claimed with increasing frequency over the past few years by parents and other caregivers who feel that they have lost job opportunities as a result of their responsibilities at home. Recently, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission issued guidelines on the subject, which will likely even further raise awareness of the issue among employees. Report Link Avoiding The Pitfalls of FRD.Fisher & Phillips, LLP - February 12, 2007 In our last issue we reported on a subcategory of gender discrimination called “family responsibility discrimination” (FRD) that is creating a disturbing trend for employers. (See, “FRD Discrimination. Never Heard Of It? You Will!” Labor Letter, January, 2007). According to a recent study by sociologist Mary Still and published by the Center of WorkLife Law at the U.C. Hastings College of the Law, FRD lawsuits have increased by the staggering amount of nearly 400% in the United States in the last decade. This statistic is compelling employers to educate themselves and arm their companies with updated polices and procedures.
Report Link Employer's Anti-Mommy Attitude May Be Gender Discrimination, Alleged Discriminator Is Another Woman.Jackson Lewis LLP - July 20, 2004 The Second Circuit Court of Appeals on April 7, 2004, held that stereotyping about the qualities of motherhood is a form of gender discrimination, even where the alleged discriminators are other women and even though the plaintiff cannot prove that men were treated differently.
