It prohibited employment discrimination and minimized potential harm to civilian careers and employment. In other words, the government was offering the civilians to serve our country when they were needed without affecting the employees’ career or finding employment. That is why the congress enacted (USERRA) To protect the members of the reserve expanding the forces and having they available when the country needed them to serve with no employment consequence.USERRA Has reduced the interference to the lives of citizens performing support in the uniform service and it has made it more secure for us and our families. Reassuring stability after military service and returning to our civilian lives.Amelia postThe subject of wage inequality between genders remains a contentious issue in the United States despite the Equal Pay Act passed in 1963 (McAnallen, 2015). According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, women earn 76% of what their male counterparts earn in the U.S (McAnallen, 2015). While this wage discrepancy had reduced over the years since 1970 when it was 62%, it reflects the long journey in attaining equal wages for the same work done irrespective of the gender or race of the employee. The wage gap is even bigger for Hispanic and black women. Hispanic women earn 56 cents while black women earn 64 cents to the one dollar paid to their white men counterparts (McAnallen, 2015).Numerous reasons explain why the gender pay disparity persists ranging from traditional gender roles to employer discrimination (Groh, 2020). Although the Equal Pay Act was enacted to solve the issue of gender inequality pay, more efforts need to be put into place. Discriminatory wages cause everyone to suffer economic loss. Eliminating the gender wage disparity calls for individuals, companies, culture, and politics (Groh, 2020).In order to solve the problem of gender pay disparity, the United States Congress enacted the Equal Pay Act in 1963 (McAnallen, 2015). The law made it unlawful for companies and individual employers to pay women lower remunerations than their male counterparts for equal tasks that require the same responsibility, effort, and skill. The act also gives a cause of action for employees who experience such unfair treatment. In 1964, the U.S Congress also passed the Civil Rights Act, prohibiting employment disparity based on gender, race, age, or class status. This law disallows discernment in workplaces based on gender and is also employed to address wage discrimination assertions.JOURNAL ASSIGNMENTConduct a web search to identify online resources for the community you have selected for your final project (MENTAL HEALTH) You may also wish to utilize any of the local community sites you identified in this module’s discussion topic.
