I’m planning on putting together a comprehensive review of 2007, just like I did last year. In the process of reviewing those cases and laws, and I wanted to do some evaluation (before I start looking at this year’s new bills). I wanted to decide whether this was a good year for employers or employees.
After mulling it over, I’ve decided that it was a bad year for both. No, I’m not saying that on some derivative of the theory that what’s bad for employers hurts employment, but, rather, the failure of the Courts to produce clear rules in some cases (though, obviously, not all), or to muddy some that were clear, has made it harder for employers to know how to comply and harder for employee to know what their rights are.
