"A job is like a romance," notes Sack. "Companies woo applicants with promises of security, fulfillment, riches. Then, when the honeymoon is over, even highly qualified people find themselves being treated unfairly. Many don't receive promised benefits such as year-end bonuses, commissions, health insurance, vacation pay and overtime. Others are fired without cause or notice through no fault of their own. The Employee Rights Handbook was written exclusively for this purpose - for employees to protect themselves and their jobs against illegal action and receive equal footing with the boss."
