One 50-year old US Supreme Court case lives on today that still affects HR. McDonnel Douglas Corp. v. Green, 411 U.S. 792 (1973) created a simple roadmap for judges, juries, and attorneys to follow when determining whether discrimination occurred in the workplace, but this case is generally unknown to HR. This presentation explains what this roadmap is, what HR does to follow it, and what HR does to not follow it. This presentation provides real life, practical examples to fall back on when faced with some of their most important legal issues.

Learning Objectives:

* Explain the roadmap that McDonnell Douglas provides to HR and HR attorneys.

* Provide real life examples of when HR followed the roadmap and when it did not.

* Provide the consequences of not following the roadmap.
