A big, special new episode of my “Employment Law Now” podcast has just been released today!
This is part 1 of a 2 part sit-down interview with former EEOC General Counsel David Lopez, who offers terrific insight on issues such as how the EEOC determines its strategic plan and what cases to take on, how he responds to employer perception that the EEOC has become more activist and pro-employee, and recent noteworthy cases involving transgender, wage and age discrimination.
