An employee, who we will call, “Sara”, worked at the facility for 3 years and had great reviews and promotions. She was experiencing some marital issues that did not affect her job performance.

Certain practices, widely known as ‘disparate treatment’, imply treatment of some employees or candidates in a different way, such as requiring women to pass a driving test prior to applying for a job, but nor requiring men to pass the test when they apply for the same job. It is extremely important to note that practices which make a disparate impact on members of protected classes may be viewed as fair in the eyes of employers, but entail detrimental influence on members of protected classes.
