Tool Racial Discrimination in the Workplace

The information on the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission’s Web site can help employers ensure that they are in compliance with Title VII.

For HR managers who may need to refresh their memory banks on how Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 helps protect employees against discrimination, the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission Web site is worth visiting. The protections include those against discrimination based on race or perceived racial group in recruiting, hiring and advancement, and against classification based on race or color, such as in the area of work assignments. In the 2007 fiscal year, the commission received more than 30,000 charges of race discrimination, its Web site says. The information on the site can help employers ensure that they are in compliance with Title VII.

Are We the Only Company Laboring to Manage Our Expats?

How do we better manage our expat process? Ideally, we'd like to have some type of case-management tool that enables us to make sure we place the right people in the right overseas assignment. Could you share some pointers on how we can make sure the expat process we use works to the benefit of our company and our expats?
