Your Rights in the Workplace

Let Dilbert scoff: people do have rights in the workplace that extend beyond getting paper cuts. In clear, encouraging terms that never lapse into legalese, this comprehensive book explains these workplace rights. State by state, it untangles the issues concerning: hiring, wages and hours, family and medical leave, discrimination, workers' compensation, job health and safety, unemployment and disability insurance. The book also addresses HIV/AIDS, privacy rights and the Americans with Disabilities Act. Completely revised and updated to include the latest changes in each state's laws.
