“A little common sense is not amiss in a discrimination case.” Most of the time this advice is overlooked, at least it seems to be, by lawyers, judges, employees and, in particular, employees. Here we’ll explore recent developments as they happen and try to help employers, particularly those in Tennessee (where I work). It may not be pretty but as long as people do stupid things at work, there will be plenty to talk about.
This blog is intended to provide general guideance and it should never be taken as legal advice. What an employer does in any particular circumstance depends on a careful analysis of the facts and legal principles. I hope, however, that by providing some common sense, those decisions will be better informed and employers will have a better understanding of when to seek specific advice from legal counsel.
