From Library Journal
What options do employees have when faced with abuses and unfair practices by their employers? To help employees know their rights, Sack (Getting Fired), an attorney and radio host, has revised his 1992 book of the same title to reflect new laws and decisions. His new handbook advises employees on what to do when faced with illegal interview questions, sexual harassment, discrimination, illegal firings and layoffs, and defamatory job references. Practical advice is provided for when and how to hire an attorney, negotiating a job, writing a letter of protest regarding illegal interview questions, and writing a letter demanding a written explanation for discharge. Sample letters and agreements are provided, as is a glossary of terms and a directory of American Arbitration Regional Offices, Equal Employment Opportunity Commision field offices, and State Human Rights Commissions. Stack stresses the importance of consultation with experienced counsel regarding applications of the strategies described.
