Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Age Discrimination in Employment Act prohibits discrimination against individuals who are 40 years of age or older in employment. By advertising for "young" workers, Acme Global would be excluding older workers from consideration, which would be a violation of this act. The Americans with Disabilities Act and Rehabilitation Act provide protection against discrimination based on disability, and Title VII of the Civil Rights Act prohibits discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin. While these acts are also important in preventing discrimination, they are not applicable in this scenario.
