For Everyone-Workers, Managers, Employers-and You! — Revised and Updated — THE ONE BOOK YOU SHOULD KEEP IN YOUR TOP DESK DRAWER!

He answers the questions employers don't want you to ask, including: * My employer wants to fire me and hire a younger person at lower pay. Is that legal?

* I was "downsized" two weeks before I was supposed to get my annual bonus. Am I entitled to that money?

* My child has come down with a debilitating disease. Does the Family and Medical Leave Act protect me if I take time off to care for her?

* My former employer wrote an untrue, negative evaluation that is hurting my chances for a new job. What can I do?

Helping you to save time and money, this guide also includes sample letters and other documents that you can copy and use, negotiation strategies, important information on discrimination and sexual harassment, and a special section for commissioned sales reps.
