Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Both cases involved the use of employment tests that had a disparate impact on minorities because they did not measure the skills required for the job. In Griggs v. Duke Power Company, the Supreme Court ruled against the company's use of aptitude and intelligence tests that were not related to job performance and had a disproportionate impact on African American employees. Similarly, in Albemarle Paper Company v. Moody, the Court found that the company's use of multiple-choice tests that had not been validated for job-relatedness had a disparate impact on African American employees.
