Question 1:
The disparate treatment may lead severe problems or challenges within the corporation.
Not just this may lead to legal actions; this may also cause the company to lack diversity that
may intensely influence the bottom line. The disparate treatment is considered as the illegal
discrimination in the labor law in United States of America (Carbado, 2017). In USA, the
disparate treatment is considered as illegal unequal actions toward somebody because of the
secured characteristics in the Title VII of Civil Rights Act of USA. These differences
with disparate impact, wherever the company implements the neutral rule that handles every
body similarly in form, however has the harmful effects on certain persons of the secured
characteristics in comparison of the others. For proving the disparate treatment claims, firstly the
worker should represent the adequate evidence for permitting the jury or judge for inferring that
discrimination occurred. It is considered as the “prima facie” case for the reason that firstly it
appears at discrimination; what the evidence contains depends upon the fact. In a case when a
worker may represent the prima facie matter, then the company should describe the legal, non-
discriminatory reasons for judgments. As soon as the worker state these reasons, then he or she
should prove pretext that the stated reasons of the company are not true, the mere pretext for the
actual aim that is discrimination (Younossi, et. al, 2016).
Further, the desperate treatment may be described as the condition wherever the
employers treat some workers less constructively in the comparison of other depended on the
sex, race, national origin, color as well as belief. This type of discrimination is so general in
numerous business organizations as well as one may have the legal actions for looking for the
justice for this type of treatment. The disparate treatment as well as disparate impact is

considered as the discriminatory practices. Disparate impact is considered as unintentional
discrimination, where disparate treatment is on purpose. The expressions ‘adverse treatment’ as
well as the ‘adverse impact’ are utilized as the alternatives (Craig, et. al, 2019).
In addition, the disparate impact takes place while the approaches, policies, regulations or
other methods that seem to be the unbiased outcome in the disproportionate impact upon the
secured group. For an instance, checking applicants as well as utilizing outcomes from that tests
that would accidentally eradicate some minority applicants excessively is the disparate impact.
Moreover, the disparate treatment is planned service discrimination (Kahn & Martin, 2016). For
the example, examining the specific skills of just some minority applicant is the disparate
treatment. The central law restricts the work discrimination based on the race, gender,
nationality, age, same pay, sexual category, disabilities or genetic data as well as restricts the
"disparate impact" discrimination along with "disparate treatment" discrimination. In this way,
the process of filing the lawsuits in against of the discrimination in the court of law in desperate
treatment theories as well as desperate impact involves recording matters to judicial authority for
taking the legal actions in against of the committers of act. The plaintiff is required to prove to
alaw court that the form of the story is consistent as well as correct. The complainants are
required to prove that indeed the manager discriminated them. For itself, the plaintiff should
have the proper evidence in relation to the claims of discrimination. It will make able the matter
to be filed as well as anticipate the determination of this by the judges (Sanchez, 2018).
Question 2:
The adverse impact takes place while the decisions, practices, or policies have the
excessively adverse effect upon the secured group, although the adverse impact can be
