http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protected_class http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protected_class people have not mentioned: disability (if an ADA qualified disability, such as delayed sleep phase disorder,) genetic information, age (if over 40,) family status (having kids, etc,) veteran status.
- tptacek 15y agoI found it disquieting that DSPS was recognized by the ADA (meaning that one can't "discriminate" against an employee that refuses to show up during core office hours if they can convince a doctor to "diagnose" their sleeping habits as DSPS). But then I did some minimal research and found that you can in fact fire someone for refusing to show up at 10AM (or whatnot); you just have to be consistent about enforcing that rule with everyone. And so we have another reason that companies might need to adopt fascist office hours: not doing so might get them sued. (I strongly believe in the idea of the ADA and am not suggesting that the proverbial baby be thrown out with the &c &c).
