Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Federal law, specifically the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), requires that employers consider and provide reasonable accommodations to employees with disabilities to ensure they have equal access to employment opportunities. Choices A and B are incorrect as they both contain inaccurate information. The wage gap between Hispanic and Caucasian workers is actually larger than the wage gap between male and female workers. Additionally, various minority groups including women, people of color, and LGBTQ individuals face inequities in attaining upper level managerial jobs. Choice C is partially correct in that disclosing sexual orientation can lead to higher job satisfaction and organizational commitment for LGBTQ employees, but this is not always the case and could also depend on the culture and policies of the specific workplace.
