Question 5 • HVA 26-27 IM Contemporary World Problems A

How did the Civil Rights Act of 1964 address anti-Semitism in the workplace?

Answer
A
It created quotas to encourage employers to hire more Jewish workers.
B
It made it unlawful to avoid hiring a worker based on his or her religion.
C
It suggested that employers classify their workers to help prevent discrimination.
D
It required businesses to recruit workers from Jewish schools and communities.

Explanation

Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 made it unlawful for covered employers to discriminate against employees or job applicants because of religion. That protection applied to Jewish workers, so employers could not refuse to hire someone because the person was Jewish. The act did not create hiring quotas or require recruitment from particular communities.
