Ranking Member Joe Courtney (D-Conn.) Opening Remarks for Subcommittee on Workforce Protections Hearing on “Examining the Regulatory and Enforcement Actions of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission"

WASHINGTON, DC – The following are prepared remarks by Rep. Joe Courtney (D-CT) , the senior Democrat on the House Education and the Workforce Committee’s Subcommittee on Workforce Protections, for the hearing on the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. *** Good morning. I want to thank Chairman Walberg for calling today's hearing to examine the important work the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission is undertaking through the leadership of the Commission's chair Jacqueline Berrien. Chair Berrien, I want to thank you for being with us today to update the subcommittee on the work of the EEOC. The work of the EEOC is critical, particularly when we look to the challenges facing the unemployed in our nation. Even as the economy has improved, with 7.5 unemployment rate last month, the unemployment gap has remained high for minorities – for African Americans, it was 13.2 percent and for Latinos, 9.0 in April. And we know, as labor economists and experts point to, that discrimination remains one of factors for the disparity. Every worker in this country- whether a job applicant or employee- deserves the right to be treated fairly in the workplace and judged based upon ability to do the job. The foundation of our civil rights laws is to ensure that all Americans have the opportunity to participate in society, to provide for themselves and their families, and to contribute to the economy. Unfortunately, far too often workers are no ...

- One in five SMEs have been encouraged to expand by the Government’s decision to introduce an Employment Allowance towards employer NI contributions - A further one in three of SMEs are considering recruiting due to the reduced cost of Employment - Four in ten SMEs have the necessary insurance in place for expansion within their business According to new research1 from Direct Line for Business (“DL4B”), one in five (20 per cent) Small to Medium Sized Enterprises (SMEs) in the UK has been encouraged to expand following the Government’s decision to introduce an Employment Allowance of £2,000 a year towards employer National Insurance (NI) contributions2. BSD Broadly Risks Firetrench Directory In addition to those small businesses that are looking to expand, a further 33 per cent of firms are considering recruiting due to the reduced cost of Employment. However, despite these encouraging plans small companies are not prioritising business protection, with only 40% believing they have necessary insurance cover in place for expansion. Business owners prioritise the importance of setting targets (68%) and the need for a comprehensive business and marketing plans (66%). Unfortunately, many seem less prepared when it comes to ensuring their business is protected if things go wrong, or their cover is aligned to the expansion of their business.

IMMIGRANT SELF-EMPLOYMENT: THE IMPACT OF RESIDENTIAL AND ENTREPRENEURIAL CONCENTRATION, AND EDUCATION ON IMMIGRANT SELF-EMPLOYMENT OUTCOMES

Tue, 21 May 2013 22:43:34 GMT

This dissertation investigates the effects of ethnic resources generated by an immigrant groupâs concentration in self-Employment and a geographic area, and class resourcesâeducation in particularâon the self-Employment outcomes of immigrant business, which has been a lasting interest from the early days of immigrant entrepreneurship research. To examine the effects of immigrantsâ concentration and education, ordinary least squares regression and hierarchical linear regression for cross-classified random effects models are fit to each of the 26 minority and white immigrant groups in the 33 Canadian CMAâs (Census Metropolitan Areas). Using the 2006 Census, the dissertation examines (1) the effects of immigrantsâ REC (Residential and Entrepreneurial Concentration) in CMAâs; (2) the interactions between REC and reactive ethnicityâan enhanced awareness of oneâs ethnicity due to disadvantage in the host society; and (3) the effects of education on self-Employment propensity and income. Unlike previous studies which examined one or a few immigrant or minority groups in one or a few locales, the dissertation provides empirical evidence on the effects of REC and education on self-Employment outcomes, based on a wide range of immigrant groups in Canadian CMAâs. The findings indicate that positive effects of REC as well as education on self-Employment outcomes exist, but are limited to increasing the self-Employment pro ...
