*“Shopper’s Choice”, “Best of the Berkshires”, and “Readers’ Choice” surveys are based solely on the number of votes received by the listed entity. Voters were presented with a list of firms located in their respective targeted readership areas as follows: Rural Intelligence – Berkshire, Columbia, Northern Dutchess and Northern Litchfield counties, Shopper’s Guide – tri-state Southern Berkshires area and Berkshire Eagle – greater Berkshires area. Although the geographic locations of all votes are not known, awards are most likely based on votes cast by local individuals and/or entities and should not be extrapolated to indicate national or regional voting. The survey does not offer voters specific criteria or factors that define “best.” The judgment factors used by voters are not known to the survey sponsor or BMM. Appearance on these lists should not be construed as an endorsement of BMM’s investment skill or acumen or an endorsement by any regulatory or government body. BMM promotes the survey in its marketing materials and makes active efforts to encourage voting but has not provided any financial renumeration to the survey sponsor or voters.

Massachusetts Employment Discrimination Guidelines Massachusetts State Law Prohibits Employment Discrimination based on:

RACE, COLOR, NATIONAL ORIGIN, SEX, DISABILITY *, AGE*, GENETIC INFORMATION, MARITAL STATUS, SEXUAL ORIENTATION, MILITARY SERVICE, ARREST RECORD*, GENDER IDENTITY * * DISABILITY: physical or mental. Qualified handicapped persons are entitled to reasonable accommodations, unless that accommodation presents an undue hardship to the employer. AGE: (40 and older) Federal law and Massachusetts law both prohibit employers from discriminating against their employees who are 40+ years old based on their age. ARREST RECORD: It is illegal for an employer to ask certain questions about a job applicant's or employee's criminal record. The CORI Reform Act prevents employers from seeking disclosure of job applicants' criminal record information prior to the interview stage of the hiring process. GENDER IDENTITY: It is illegal for an employer to publish a job advertisement that shows a preference for or discourages someone from applying for a job because of his/her race, color, religion, sex (including gender identity, sexual orientation, and pregnancy), national origin, age (40 or older), disability or genetic information.

Also, Discrimination Laws refer to Art in Employment ads as well as copy ie: no white male under the age of 40 can be depicted in an employment ad all by himself.
