(FROM THE ARTICLE: The WOTC encourages “employers to hire and train people who are experiencing severe difficulties that are often linked to unemployment,” such as recipients of certain federal and state assistance programs, individuals who have completed or are completing certain rehabilitative services, and certain individuals convicted of felonies, by offering them tax credits. To qualify for the WOTC tax credit, employers must “obtain official confirmation of job applicants’ WOTC eligibility status before” making an offer of employment.)
LEXOLOGY
— Selecting Employees for Recall or Rehire – Shawe Rosenthal (DIERSEN: Overwhelmingly, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes a) demonize, denigrate, and condemn seniority and b) promote demographics. They promote those who are minority, female, younger, veteran, non-conservative, non-Protestant, non-German American, those whose ancestors have not been in America for a long time, etc. They promote those who promote LGBTQ activity, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, abolition of the First and Second Amendments, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation for opposing the aforesaid. What seniority do/did you have? I have 20 years seniority as a Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) member and as the GOPUSA ILLINOIS Editor and 6 years as a MTRO webmaster. I have almost 7 years seniority as a TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman, 8 years as a Wheaton Chamber of Commerce (WCC) Government Affairs Committee member, 4 years as an Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) Steering Committee member, 3 years as an American Association of Political Consultants (AAPC) Midwest Chapter board member, and 13 years as an Association of Government Accountants (AGA) Chicago Chapter Executive Committee member. In 1997, I had almost 30 years federal seniority – almost 18 years working for GAO, almost 9 years working for IRS, and almost 3 years working for the Post Office. I should write a book about the many similarities between my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes a) in MTRO, TAPROOT, WCC, ICRC, AAPC, AGA, and b) GAO, IRS, and the Post Office.)
https://www.lexology.com/library/detail.aspx?g=b16b7e14-6c13-4aab-a5b8-78379c8ffbdf
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The traditional selection criteria for layoffs and recalls, commonly specified in collective bargaining agreements, are seniority and ability to perform the job. In a case alleging intentional discrimination, choosing the most senior qualified employee for recall is likely to accepted as a non-discriminatory explanation. Seniority systems can have an adverse impact on groups that were subject to exclusion in the past; however, it is not discriminatory to follow a bona fide seniority system. To be considered a “bona fide seniority system” the system must give primary weight to seniority, be communicated to affected employees and be consistently applied. Nor is it discriminatory to follow a seniority system if it has no adverse impact on any protected group. Many employers believe that seniority should not be a controlling factor, because length of service does not necessarily correlate with employees’ value to them. Employer can choose employees for recall based on any non-discriminatory criteria, such as quality of work, quantity of work, attendance, job related skills, etc. However, management’s subjective impressions about employees are vulnerable to attack on the grounds that they are based on negative stereotypes. It is much safer to rely on performance appraisals that were based on objective criteria and documented.)
