Is Your "Butt" Really Covered?
How many of you are familiar with the EEOC's Uniform Guidelines on Employee Selection Procedures (i.e., Uniform Guidelines)? That's what I thought ... not many.
Well, if you are already familiar with these guidelines, this will be a refresher. If you aren't then you should be! Why?
