Disparate treatment is discussed in Section IV and disparate impact is discussed in Section V. A covered employer is liable for violating Title VII when the plaintiff demonstrates that it treated him differently because of his race, national origin, or another protected basis.54 For example, there is Title VII disparate treatment liability where the evidence shows that a covered employer rejected an African American applicant based on his criminal record but hired a similarly situated White applicant with a comparable criminal record.55. ; see generally Victoria Kane, Transcript of 7-26-11 Meeting, U.S. However, national statistics indicate that Hispanics have similar or lower drug usage rates compared to Whites. . 165 See Stephen Saltzburg, Transcript of 7-26-11 Meeting, U.S. Compliance with other federal laws and/or regulations that conflict with Title VII is a defense to a charge of discrimination under Title VII.

Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (Commission or EEOC) issued over twenty years ago. Thus, even though the policy has a disparate impact on Hispanics, the EEOC does not find reasonable cause to believe that discrimination occurred because the policy is job related and consistent with business necessity. The policy does not allow for any individualized assessment before exclusion. Relevant and available information to make this assessment includes, for example, studies demonstrating how much the risk of recidivism declines over a specified time.118, Finally, it is important to identify the particular job(s) subject to the exclusion. Nationally, African Americans and Hispanics are arrested in numbers disproportionate to their representation in the general population. Finally, in determining disparate impact, the Commission will assess the probative value of an employer's applicant data. The Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA) is closely monitoring this process.
