Who, What, and Where: Guidelines for the Statistical Analysis of Disparate Impact in EEO Litigation

By: Palmer Morrel-Samuels

This might come as a shock: Employees in large corporations sometimes mistakenly believe that they have been discriminated against.

In both types of litigation, employees believe that they have been discriminated against because of their minority status. In disparate treatment cases, plaintiffs must show that they were treated differently because of that status, and incriminating statements-express or implied-must be admitted as evidence to suggest a discriminatory intent.
