Description of the publication:

The Reporter is an online newsletter on employment law developments that affect public safety organizations -- law enforcement, corrections and the fire service. It contains summaries of recent court decisions from all 50 states, new federal laws and arbitration awards.

Although the contents of each monthly issue will vary, as new cases are released, there are over 200 topics which have been discussed, such as disciplinary offenses, punishment and hearing procedures; ADA, ADEA, EEOC and other kinds of discrimination claims; physical, agility and psychological standards for hiring and retention; employee privacy, and many other subjects. The official court or other legal citation is included with every case and dispute mentioned.

There is no advertising in the publication. The editor strives to fairly and objectively report the facts and holdings, without bias toward either side of a dispute.

Beginning in mid 2006, the Fire and Police Personnel Reporter became one of four monthly periodicals that can be accessed online at no charge. The other publications are the AELE Monthly Law Bulletin, the Law Enforcement Liability Reporter and the Jail and Prisoner Law Bulletin.
