Camille Olson Quoted in American City Business Journals
"Business Already Losing on Workplace Issues"

Camille Olson was quoted in the article, "Business Already Losing on Workplace Issues,” which appeared in the January 16, 2009 editions of American City Business Journals publications throughout the country. The article reported on the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act and the Paycheck Fairness Act, which both passed the House of Representatives this week. According to the article, to business groups, these votes signal a tough year ahead for employers on workplace issues, especially since no hearings were held on the bills this before they were brought to the House floor. Camille noted that if the legislation were enacted, employers would need "to take a look at their document retention policies and practices." In cases were supervisors are long gone, Camille advised that "documentation may be all that you have" to defend against a wage discrimination claim.
