Project Summary: This is what the paper should be about BELOW. Has Title VII of The Civil Rights Act of 1964 accomplished its purposes? Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 is a federal law that prohibits employers from discriminating against employees on the basis of sex, race, color, national origin, and religion (Know Your Rights, 2015, para 1). There are many laws and acts in place to protect individuals from being discriminated against in the workplace. The two most well known are the American with Disabilities Act and Affirmative Action. There is however, a law that was passed in 1964 that provides almost a coverall for workplace discrimination. This is known as Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Title VII of the act created the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) to implement the law (Teaching With Documents, 2015, para 2). Under Title VII, individuals have the right to file a complaint against their workplace, and have it investigated while being protected against retaliation. I would like to learn exactly what Title VII covers and if workplaces are following the laws set forth by Title VII. I would also like to learn about some of the consequences associated with not abiding by the regulations of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. According to the Society for Human Resource Management, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 covers topics of retaliation, segregation, classification, compensation, employment terms, harassment in the workplace, hostile work environments, recruiting, hiring, and advancement ( Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, 2015). Title VII protects individuals working in a workplace that generally contain 15 or more employees. I plan to present my research by reviewing human resource policies at my own workplace that show we have policies in tact that prevent discrimination at our workplace, along with researching Supreme Court cases pertaining to Title VII of the Civil Rights Act. I also plan on providing an overview of what this act is and how it the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission provides assistance to those being discriminated against. I plan to show readers that even though there is still discrimination in the workforce of today, there are policies, acts, laws, and committees that are focused on protecting individuals, if they seek to take action against a workplace that is discriminating against them.
