Before the final passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964,
Virginia Democrat, Senator Howard W. Smith, inserted
into the language of the legislation defining the class of
persons protected under the anti-discrimination
provisions of Title VII the word:
A) Race
B) Religion
C) Sex
D) National origin
C-Sex
He did so in an attempt to defeat the legislation, as there existed a strong antiwomen animus among unions and supporters of the legislation who did not want
women included in the protections offered by Title VII.
Which of the following is not an element of a prima facie
case for gender discrimination?
A) The employee is the protected class
B) The employee is qualified for the position
C) A person of the same gender received favorable
employment action or the employer continues to look for
applicants for the position.
D) The employee suffers some adverse employment
action
C- A person of the same gender received favorable employment action or the
employer continues to look for applicants for the position.
The full list of elements for a prima facie case include: 1) the employee is the
protected class; 2) the employee is qualified for the position; 3) the employee
suffers some adverse employment action; and 4) a person of opposite gender
received favorable employment action or the employer continues to look for
applicants for the position.
