Question

Employees at Clearwater Plumbing Supply, Inc. asked the management to hold an election to determine which radio station would be played on the warehouse public address (PA) system while they are working. The winning station was a Christian music station. After a few weeks of having exclusively Christian music played over the loudspeakers at work, some Muslim employees complained to the management that it was religious discrimination. The management stopped playing music on the PA system and allowed employees to wear headsets or have small radios at their workplace. An employee who is a devout Christian was extremely disappointed by this change and brought a complaint under Title VII.

(A) What is true of this scenario?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The employee cannot show disparate treatment because prohibiting a certain kind of music at work, even that which has been approved by a majority employee vote is not an adverse employment action.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Going by the question we can derive a scenario whereby the employee cannot demonstrate disparate treatment since prohibiting a specific kind of music at work, even that which has been approved by a majority or popular employee vote, is not an unpleasant and adverse employment action.
