Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Wards Cove Packing Co. v. Atonio initially made it more difficult for plaintiffs to prove discrimination by placing the burden of proof on them. However, the Civil Rights Act of 1991 was enacted in part to counteract this decision, among others, by shifting the burden of proof back to the employer in cases of alleged disparate impact.
