An employer is concerned that her workplace has only a few African-Americans, Hispanics, and women in upper-level management and skilled labor jobs. Most unskilled-labor and clerical positions are held by women and minorities. The employer decides to institute a program that will increase the numbers of minorities and women in management and skilled-labor positions. Is this permissible

This is not permissible

Explanation:

This is not permissible because giving them any forms of special treatments is going to be considered to be discriminatory to other people.

Discrimination on the basis of gender, age, color, religion is illegal in the united states and considered a criminal offense.

So even though management has good intentions they have to consider;

1. If these group of people have the required qualifications

2. If there are openings to accommodate these groups given that they are qualified.

3. Filling up every job with this group is going to be regarded as reverse discrimination.

the answer is a.
