There are multiple challenges interpreting labor and employment laws as well the court cases and decisions that are applicable to them. One challenge is if an illegal alien was unlawfully terminated, does an employer by law have to bring them back? Another challenge is, does a Charter school that was first created by a public school meet the definition of “an employee” under LMRA Section 2 (2).

The traditional approach is most successful when a project does not include a lot of change and most details of the project are realized at the beginning.

Timing is also a big difference between the traditional and extreme approach.
Some example of discrimination are, sex, religion, gender, color, and sexual harassment (Bennett-Alexander, Hartman 2007).

Without title VII employers would be taking advantage of their employees by only hiring who they feel are capable of doing the job whether they can or not, or if they have the qualifications or not.
