Disparate impact discrimination cases are ____ than disparate treatment cases.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Disparate impact discrimination cases are more complex because they require statistical analysis to prove that an employment practice, policy or procedure has a disproportionate effect on a protected group, even if the discrimination was not intentional. They are also less common than disparate treatment cases because they are harder to prove and require more evidence. Disparate treatment cases involve intentional discrimination, which is easier to prove but may not have a statistically significant impact.
