As a federal manager or HR practitioner, you need to know and understand a lot of case law since you deal with so many issues, from disability accommodation to workers’ comp claims to reimbursement requests. This interactive pamphlet provides a unique way to learn or reinforce how the key administrative bodies and courts have ruled on common federal employment issues — so you can limit the number of employee claims and keep your agency out of the courtroom.
You Be the Judge: Test Your Knowledge of Federal Employment Law details specific cases in easy-to-read scenarios and then challenges you to determine the ruling — so you know what actions are legally acceptable and are prepared to handle similar situations in your agency.
You’ll sharpen your skills on legal issues and increase your case-law knowledge by learning:
- If an employee’s ADD was determined a disability by the EEOC
- Whether seasonal workers can be considered “employees” with full appeal rights under the MSPB
- How the GSBCA determines if you should be reimbursed for a hotel stay
- The EEOC’s flexibility in interpreting settlement agreements
- If stress from a heavy workload can trigger an injury covered under workers’ compensation
- And more
