SPSA holiday policies revisited In his Nov. 22 article on SPSA, Scott Harper writes that most city solid waste departments do not recognize the Friday after Thanksgiving as a holiday. In the sense that these departments have to work on that Friday, this is true. However, city departments are not allowed to choose their own holidays; they are set by citywide policy. Then the issue becomes: If you have to work on that holiday, how is compensation set? Harper states that only Virginia Beach personnel receive overtime pay for that Friday and that Chesapeake, Norfolk and Portsmouth workers do not. Most people would assume the narrow definition of overtime pay, i.e., a pay rate of time and a half of your normal wage. In Norfolk and Chesapeake (I do not know about Portsmouth), personnel who wo...

There may be a perception among some forensic economists that the time horizon for future damages in employment discrimination cases is the period the plaintiff would have remained employed with the defendant employer but for the discrimination. While the discrimination acts and interpretive case law concerning damages are nuanced as a result of the rather archaic distinction between equitable and legal remedies, it is clear that the law recognizes that discriminatory acts may injure an individual's earning capacity. Therefore, the law allows for the equitable relief of front pay and the distinct legal remedy of compensatory damages in the form of future lost earnings. While the former contemplates employment with a specific employer (i.e., the defendant), the latter does not.
