Hello,
I wasn't quite sure where to post this thread. Apologies if it's in the wrong place and if administrators need to move it, forge ahead!
Are there any federal laws--commonly used by plaintiffs--that retroactively apply to employment rights issues?
An example of what I mean is the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 and its impact on the way employers treat employees with disabilities.
It's my understanding that there were some federal laws in place--depending on the industry--that covered employment discrimination against those who were disabled, but if a person wasn't covered by one of them, wouldn't it be a case of "too bad for you?" (Because the ADA isn't--to the best of my MoreBeagleThanLegal knowledge--not retroactive.)
I'm also wondering if there is a source with an "easy to scan" listing of such critters (federal laws with retroactive application)--if indeed, any such laws exist?
Thanks!
