An employer’s formal policies often sit front-and-center in a discrimination or wrongful termination matter. Courts and administrative agencies in New York frequently consider such policies and handbooks in employment disputes.
When an employer demonstrates uniform application and enforcement of such policies, it helps create firm support for the employer’s actions. However, in cases where there is a variance on how an employer enforces its own policies, questions of fact can be raised that create more challenges for an employer’s defense. Attorneys involved in employment disputes understand that how policies are enforced can make a difference if employment litigation arises in the future.
