ection 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 After being vetoed twice by President Nixon, Congress passed Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 as the first disability civil rights law in the United States. Until this point, it was not considered discrimination for people with disabilities to be excluded or segregated. This Act also recognized for the first time that people with disabilities were a minority class with civil rights (https://drc.ucsc.edu/about/more-history.html). Section 504 protected people with disabilities from exclusion and unequal treatment in schools, jobs, and the community by prohibiting discrimination on the basis of disability in public or private programs and activities that receive federal aid. It read,
Individuals with disabilities are required to have equal access to all benefits of the job. • I would use this term at work by always following the rules under the Act and provide equal treatment to all employees. I will make sure others provide equal treatment to those who have disabilities. 2.
The people with disabilities that would want to apply for a specific job would have to show that in the job their disability would ultimately slow down or cause an extreme downfall in the business in order to not be considered at least to obtain the job. However, afterwards every employee with or without disabilities will have to go through an entrance exam once they have already been moved to the maybe pile. The act will disapprove of the employer to ask questions on the disability unless and only unless their disability might pose as a future downfall in the business. For the sum of the hiring process this will not interfere if the company
I have chosen to discuss “Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967”. The Federal Government passed ADEA to prevent discriminatory practices against applicants and employees who are age 40 and older in the employment sector. Employers with 20 or more employees are mandated to uphold this law. The “spirit of the law” is the attitude how a person abides by the law and willing to do the right thing. The creator’s intention is to have respect and compassion for the law.
(Doc. 2) The Equal Pay Act of 1963 is a legal document intended to secure equal pay for men and women. In this aspect, the document is trustworthy and strongly supports my thesis that the women's rights movement was created to achieve equal pay.

Australia is known as a country of freedom and fairness, however many groups such as youth, the unemployed, aged, and ethnic groups tend to become marginalised because of their minority status. Certain groups are marginalised because they are perceived as being different or undeserving of equality in society. This is called stereotyping and it leads to prejudice and discrimination. This essay explores three marginalised groups and discusses some of the reasons why they are marginalised and the effects on those within these groups. Exclusion from areas such as employment and other services and opportunities that other Australian 's take for granted, is a result of the marginality of indigenous Australian 's, woman, and those with
According to the Ability Center, The Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA) makes it unlawful to discriminate in employment against a qualified individual with a disability. The ADA also, outlaw’s discrimination against individuals with disabilities in State and local government services, public accommodations, transportation and telecommunications (Blanck 5). This document explains the part of the ADA that prohibits job discrimination. The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission along with State and local civil rights enforcement agencies, work to enforce this part on the law (Blanck). The law unquestionably improved the lives of people with disabilities in many ways, especially by enhancing their access to businesses and public places.

Within this act, it makes it very clear that both males and females should be getting the same compensation if they are working in the same establishment. Employers are responsible for abiding by these rules or they are liable to get legal action taken against them and in some cases face very expensive fines for their actions. (“Dealing With Discrimination”) The thing I feel that people fail to realize then most is that this gender pay gap is a real issue in today’s society and that it not only affects the women who are working at these jobs but it affects all parties involved including the men who work for

The selection by Rapp and Goscha, as well as the one by Raske, discusses the significance of encouraging all clients to set goals for themselves for the future, regardless of any physical or psychological disabilities they may have. Nearly everyone has goals and aspirations in life, such as shelter, employment, and friendship, but sometimes, social workers are needed to give the client a boost in the right direction (Rapp and Goscha, 2006, p.35). Both articles highlight that people’s strengths are so much more important than disabilities, but these often get overlooked by today’s society that focuses and thrives on negativity. However, there are some major differences between the two pieces, especially regarding the theories of social work
while strategy makers earlier anticipated that disabled people were expressively less active as compare to others in the place of work.
