Book excerpt: Statistical analysis can play a pivotal role in both avoiding and settling employment disputes. Employers and litigants in employment lawsuits routinely use statistics to investigate the legitimacy of employment decisions. "Statistical Analysis of Employment Data" provides managers and courts with empirical evidence that goes beyond anecdotes and stories. This textbook presents the methodologies that are used in statistical employment data analyses. While the focus is on statistics, it is not a cookbook of magic mathematical formulas. Instead, a non-mathematical approach is used to develop the conceptual framework underlying employment data analyses.
