Abstract

This article states that recent studies reveal that employees who sue over discrimination lose at a higher rate in U.S. federal court than other type of plaintiffs. Studies suggest that plaintiffs in job discrimination cases get less time in court and with judges quicker to throw out their cases. Employee welfare advocates are hoping the Obama administration will create a better climate for discrimination claims. It details the results of studies on the issue, such as statistics on chances of winning a job discrimination case.
