Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA) permits disparate treatment in cases where age is a BFOQ, which is not the issue in this example. ERISA refers to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act, and the EEOC refers to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission
