Answer 1

State Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) laws prohibit discrimination in employment on the basis of age, gender, sexual orientation, and race, with exceptions for Bona Fide Occupational Qualifications (BFOQs) that may require specific characteristics for certain occupations.

Step-by-step explanation:

In terms of employment, all state Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) laws prohibit discrimination on the basis of age, gender, sexual orientation, and race, except in cases where sex may be a Bona Fide Occupational Qualification (BFOQ). There are instances where certain occupations may require specific characteristics such as religion, national origin, age, and sex as bona fide occupational qualifications. For example, BFOQs may be invoked for hiring someone of a specific religion for a leadership position in a worship facility or for an executive position in religiously affiliated institutions.
