Tracking the field as it is practiced by employment lawyers on both plaintiff and defense side, this book enables a one-semester treatment of the full range of employment discrimination laws as well as the core subjects of an employment law offering. It provides complete analysis of laws designed to protect individuals from employment decisions that affect them unfairly because of their race, color, sex, age, disability or other protected characteristic . Also considers the extent to which the law prevents employers from retaliating against employees for filing claims, reporting misdeeds or other activity that our society highly values or seeks to protect. Treats the common law of the employment relationship. Considers also the enactment of wage-hour, pension and other minimum terms laws to establish regulatory floors for private negotiation of employment contracts. Takes up the procedural design of regulatory systems for employment relationships and questions of coordination of multiple systems, including in-depth consideration of class actions, collateral estoppel and arbitration issues.

In an increasingly global economy fraught with foreign law land mines, the breadth of concerns for lawyers advising clients employing or employed across borders is vast and growing. Finding ways to realize the expectations of the parties when the employment relationship spans multiple jurisdictions with potentially conflicting policies, different conceptions of employment, and even different vocabularies to describe employment events is a major challenge. In recognition of the growing importance of global labour and employment law, the Center for Labor and Employment Law at New York University School of Law dedicated its 61st Annual Conference on Labor to an in-depth examination of issues arising in this area. This volume of the proceedings of the 2008 conference contains papers presented at that meeting, all here updated to reflect recent developments, as well as additional contributions from other practitioners and academics with extensive knowledge and experience in the field. Experts from both the practicing bar and academia – twenty-seven in all – use their unique strengths to address issues worthy of concern in each juridical realm. Among the many important topics presented and discussed are the following: • application of international law “soft norms” through domestic legal systems; • jurisdictional issues in employee benefits; • extraterritorial application of the U.S. Employment Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA); • impact of the application of international human rights standards to employment issues; • drafting of specific types of employment agreements in a multijurisdictional context; • obstacles to cross-border enforcement of restrictive covenants; • how U.S. securities law affects global stock option plans; • workplace electronic privacy issues; • publicly mandated social benefits; • effect of both immigrant and non-immigrant visas on high-skill workers; • how bilateral labor agreements can solve transnational immigration problems; • codes of business conduct; • role of labor rights in foreign direct investment; • application of anti-discrimination laws to religious discrimination across jurisdictions; and • whistleblower protection. An unusual feature of this volume in the series is its in-depth attention to comparative law in the field, with exploration of developments in China, France, and New Zealand, as well as in European Union law. As always, this annual conference captures valuable insights and syntheses of central labour and employment law issues and will be of great value to practitioners and academics in the field. With insights that can assist lawyers engaged in counselling both employers and employees, this volume goes a long way toward meeting the expectations of both employee and employer at various stages of the employment relationship, and handling the disputes that inevitably arise.

Barack Obama's famous "Blueprint for Change," part and parcel of the campaign that culminated in his historic election as U.S. president in November 2008, openly announced his support for the Employee Free Choice Act (H.R. 1409) suggesting that major change was imminent in U.S. labor and employment law. Although promised legislative change has yet to materialize, there appears to be a growing consensus that the current system for addressing employment disputes in union-represented and non-union workplaces deserves renewed attention and needs significant restructuring. Thus, the issues taken up by this prominent U.S. conference remain relevant to policy debates which will likely continue to rage in the United States for years to come.
 Based on papers delivered at the 2009 conference of the New York University School of Law's Center on Labor and Employment Law- the 62nd in this venerable and highly influential series - the book presents articles updated by the authors to reflect more recent developments, as well as new papers to ensure a comprehensive and current analysis of both what has actually changed and which trends seem to be gaining momentum. Twenty-two outstanding scholars and practitioners in U.S. labor law and practice pay special attention to such issues as the following:
<ul>
<li>mandatory arbitration of employment disputes in non-union sector</li>
<li>call for improved administration of the National Labor Relations Act in expediting elections and reinstating discriminatees</li>
<li>more privatized forms of dispute resolution such as arbitration and mediation</li>
<li>card-check and neutrality agreements bypassing government processes</li>
<li> proposed reform of the Age Discrimination in Employment Act</li>
<li>evaluating market-based defenses to pay equity claims</li>
<li>EEOC initiatives in public enforcement of equality law; and</li>
<li>challenges to labor relations in state and local governments.</li>
</ul>
 As always, this important annual publication offers definitive current scholarship in its theme area of labor and employment law. As such, it will be of inestimable value to practitioners, government officials, academics, and others interested in developments in U.S. employment and labor relations law and practice.
