A Judeo-Christian Legal Guide to Human Resource Management: Legal, Practical, and Inspirational Tips for Managers

So much of human resource management these days is driven by fear of lawsuits (an employee suing an employer) that many companies and organizations do not achieve as much productivity and profitability as they deserve. They spend large sums on lawyers and strategies to prevent lawsuits. They sometimes retain, rather than terminate, underperforming employees, for fear that a terminated employee will sue. This diverts money from company profits and employee wages. Lawyer David A. Robinson and his wife, human resources professional Esther, have advised employers and thought about this problem for decades. Is there anything employers can do about this problem? Looking for answers, David and Esther found some answers in a place they did not expect: the Bible. They expected the Bible to be on the side of “servants” (employees), not “masters” (employers). They were pleasantly surprised to find the Bible on the side of employees AND employers! This book is written specifically for 2025 and the next few years. In his inaugural address on January 20, 2025, President Donald Trump said society should be “colorblind and merit-based.” He added, “As of today, it will henceforth be the official policy of the United States government that there are only two genders, male and female.” Employers, whether they approve or disapprove of Trump, should be mindful of those words.
