The Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments of the United States Constitution limit the power of the federal and state governments to discriminate

The Fifth Amendments comprise of a specific requirement which has the federal government not to have individuals deprived of “liberty, life, or property” which is without the due process of the law (Lewis et al. 2018). An implicit guarantee is found in the Fifth Amendment, which ensures that all persons receive protection on an equal basis of the laws. Therefore, several rights are created by the Fifth Amendment, which is relevant to both civil legal proceedings and also criminal legal proceedings (Mallory et al. 2015). The amendment breaks down to five different constitutional rights one of them being right against self-discrimination, which is forced.

The Fourteenth Amendment has a specific requirement which prohibits the violation of the rights of an individual by the states to the due process and protection, which is equal (Lewis et al. 2018). 3 In the context of employment, the equal protection right limits the state and federal governments’ powers to have them discriminating their employment practices through treating the former employees, employees, or job applicants unequally because of a group membership such as sex or race (Schoenbaum et al.

The Equity Pay Act is also a law which protects employees from discrimination in their different workplace. The Act prohibits unions as well as employers from paying wages differently based on the sex of the employees (Schoenbaum et al. 2017). The Act does not prevent other practices of hiring but provides that if the workers are performing equal work in jobs which require similar effort, skill, and responsibility which are performed under the same condition; these workers are to receive equal pay. The Fair Labor Standards Act is also another law prohibiting discriminatory practices in the place of work. The rule applies to the employees who are engaged in the aspect of commerce, which is interstate.

Lastly, it is the Rehabilitation Act. The Act aims at promoting and expanding employment opportunities in the private and public sectors for those individuals who are handicapped. It is done through the discriminative and affirmative action’s programs being eliminated. The Act covers employers such as agencies of the federal government and the employers receiving federal contracts which are over $2500 or financial assistance from the national.

Employment at Will Doctrine and Exceptions to the Doctrine

Under this doctrine, either party has the capability of ending the employment relationship for any given reason. As stated earlier, employees can quit with no notice or, which is the same for the employers (Kattari et al. 2016). However, it is not easy as sounds; for example, in the case of employers, it is risky to terminate an employee because one does not like how the dress or act. Therefore, four exceptions are undermining the doctrine.

Covenant of Good Faith

It means that the employee and the employer have to be forthright and fair with each other, and no one can undermine other’s benefits or rights (Guerin et al. 2016). 3 The second exception is the public policy exception whereby the doctrine recognizes the existence of government rules, laws, and policies such as anti-discrimination laws which protect the employees.

Trade Unions & Collective Bargaining Units

Employees at these organizations are not subject to the theory.

Scenarios The first scenario, of Brenda, who is a manager, the move she makes is not a smart move at all. The at-will employment doctrine provides that such employees in trade unions are not subject to the theory. The second scenario, of Jason a supervisor, the exception of good faith undermines his acts of firing his secretary. Thus, it is not a smart move. In the third scenario involving Brian who is the head of accounting, he does not take a smart move as it is undermined by the exceptions of the doctrine as it is the right of Lori to be off. Lastly, the scenario involving peter where he does not want to stop working, yet he is sick is undermined by the exceptions; thus not a good move to continue working.

Discrimination, which is based on the citizenship status, is prohibited by the Immigration and Nationality Act (Dau-Schmidt et al. 2016). They are therefore eligible for the worker’s compensation by the state.
