WORKPLACE STATUTES AND PRACTICES
A variety of laws determine workplace practices that are crucial to
legal management of an organization. Applicability of some of these
depends on the level of funding an organization receives from the
federal government (Drug-Free Workplace, Age Discrimination, Civil
Rights Act of 1964, EEO compliance, etc.). Others depend on the
number of employees in the organization. Specifically, organizations
employing 15 or more people are subject to certain federal laws (Title
VII of the Civil Rights Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act, etc.)
enforced by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. Some state and
local laws apply to even smaller employers.
