  • Summary

  • WELCOME TO THE EMPLOYEE SURVIVAL GUIDE® PODCASTThe Employee Survival Guide® is a podcast only for employees. We will share with you all the information your employer does not want you to know about and guide you through various important employment law issues. The goal of the Employee Survival Guide® podcast is to provide you with critical insights about your employment and give you the confidence to protect your job and career, especially during difficult times.The Employee Survival Guide® podcast is hosted by seasoned Employment Law Attorney Mark Carey, who has only practiced in the area of Employment Law for the past 25 years. Mark has seen just about every type of employment dispute there is and has filed several hundred lawsuits in state and federal courts around the country, including class action suits. He has a no frills and blunt approach to employment issues faced by millions of workers nationwide. Mark endeavors to provide both sides to each and every issue discussed on the podcast so you can make an informed decision. EMPLOYEE SURVIVAL GUIDE PODCAST IS LIKE NO OTHERS The Employee Survival Guide® podcast is just different than other lawyer podcasts! How? Mark hates “lawyer speak” used by lawyers and just prefers to talk using normal everyday language understandable to everyone, not just a few. This podcast is for employees only because no one has considered conveying employment information directly to employees, especially information their employers do not want them to know about. Mark is not interested in the gross distortion and default systems propagated by all employers, but targets the employers intentions, including discriminatory animus, designed to make employees feel helpless and underrepresented within each company. Company’s have human resource departments which only serve to protect the employer. You as an employee have nothing! Well, now you have the Employee Survival Guide® to deal with your employer. Through the use of quick discussions about individual employment law topics, Mark easily provides the immediate insight you need to make important decisions. Mark also uses dramatizations based on real cases he has litigated to explore important employment issues from the employee’s perspective. Both forms used in the podcast allow the listener to access employment law issues without all the fluff used by many lawyers.

  • Employers Are Still Pushing Arbitration of Sex Discrimination Cases in Violation of Federal Law
    Jun 3 2024

    Comment on the Show by Sending Mark a Text Message.

    Can employers really push for arbitration in sex discrimination cases, flouting federal laws? Join me, Mark, as we dissect this pressing concern and shed light on the ramifications of the Ending Forced Arbitration of Sexual Assault and Sexual Harassment Act of 2021. Signed into law by President Biden, this legislation was supposed to be a beacon of hope, but in reality, many employers and their legal teams continue to demand arbitration, blatantly violating the law. We'll also unravel the expansive definition of sexual harassment under the Act, which covers all forms of sex-based and gender-based discrimination, including sexual orientation and pregnancy discrimination. Through my personal encounters and legal confrontations, I underscore the importance of understanding and asserting your rights.

    The hidden complexities and inherent pitfalls of arbitration often turn it into a daunting ordeal for employees. Corporations are not shy about leveraging arbitration to protect bad actors and manipulate outcomes in their favor. This episode is your guide to recognizing these corporate tactics, so you're better equipped to navigate these challenges. By staying informed and vigilant, we can collectively challenge unlawful practices and ensure that justice prevails. Tune in to gain the knowledge and empowerment you need to protect your rights in the workplace.

    Prepare to be liberated from the shackles of non-compete agreements! This episode peels back the layers of the Federal Trade Commission's revolutionary ban that's set to empower approximately 30 million workers by September 4, 2024. We're not just talking about the end of these restrictive agreements—get ready to explore the strategic legal chess game that's unfolding as the U.S. Chamber of Commerce gears up for a significant challenge. With high-stakes implications for labor mobility and innovation, we dissect the rule's nuances, its special provisions for top executives, and concrete steps for employers to stay compliant.

    Shift the balance of power back into your hands as we unravel the ineffectiveness of non-competes for most employees and the bolstered protection non-disclosure agreements and trade secret laws provide without overextending.
