Research three different laws mentioned above and discuss how each of the three laws have helped you and/or your colleagues.
Marginalized Groups
It is important to mention that there are several other marginalized groups in the workforce. Some examples are disabled individuals; gays, lesbians and transgender individuals; pregnant women; individuals from different countries and cultures; and individuals who are serving in the military. Ultimately, the workforce is becoming more diverse which helps organizations in a number of ways such as: (1) An understanding and appreciation for all people, (2) Different perspectives and ideas, and (3) Better relationships with clients and/or customers. As such, there are a number of different laws and agencies to protect marginalized groups from disparate treatment. Disparate treatment occurs when members of a group are treated differently from others. Some examples of these laws and agencies are:
Civil Rights Act 1964 and 1991
Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC)
Executive Orders 11246, 11375, and 11478
