A nationally known arbitrator in various employment-related disputes, Twomey offers insight from his on-the-job knowledge. This concise guide to employment discrimination and related laws raises awareness of issues in the workplace, enabling managers to provide the informed leadership necessary for a discrimination- and harassment-free working environment. It includes updates on emerging employment and discrimination issues, such as Supreme Court rulings on sexual harassment and the ADA's narrowing scope of coverage. Employment Discrimination Law discusses factors important in determining when individuals are considered employees covered under the NLRA and when they are unprotected independent contractors. Appendices offer excerpts from the EEOC's Guidance on Vicarious Employer Liability for Harassment by Supervisors and from the EEOC Guidance to Field Offices on ADA Charges.

Professor David Twomey has been a member of the Business Law Department in the Carroll School of Management at Boston College since 1968. As department chair for more than a decade, and four-term chair of the school's Education Policy Committee, Professor Twomey served as a spokesperson for a strong legal and ethical component in both the undergraduate and graduate curriculum. He is the author of 35 editions of textbooks on labor, employment and business law topics. His articles have appeared in journals such as Best's Review, The American Business Law Journal, The Labor Law Journal, The Massachusetts Law Quarterly, The Florida Bar Journal, and The Business Law Review. Professor Twomey has served as arbitrator in more than 2,000 labor-management disputes throughout the country. His service includes appointments by Presidents Ronald Reagan, George H. W. Bush, William J. Clinton, George W. Bush, and Barack Obama to nine Presidential Emergency Boards, whose recommendations served as the basis for the resolution of major disputes in the rail and airline industries. After service in the U.S. Marine Corps, Professor Twomey graduated from Boston College, earned his M.B.A. at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, and a J.D. degree at Boston College Law School. He is a member of the Massachusetts and Florida Bars and a member of the National Academy of Arbitrators.
