How A Business Can Face An EEOC Claim Only Once Every 400 Years

The federal Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) reports that claims filed by employees against the employer have risen to 100,000 in 2010, up 20% in the past three years. Similar rises can be expected in comp claims and state discrimination statutes. (The NY work comp law has a discrimination section, Sect. 120, for discharging a worker in retaliation for filing a compensation claim.)
