d. an applicant's ability to speak fluent Basque and understand Basque cuisine are bona fide occupational qualifications.

Respuesta :

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "D": an applicant's ability to speak fluent Basque and understand Basque cuisine are bona fide occupational qualifications.

Explanation:

Bona Fide Occupational Qualifications (BFOQ) are special qualifications that can be requested from employers to cover specific job positions. Employers must prove that a particular skill is necessary for performing the duties of those jobs. Otherwise, the offering would be seen as labor discrimination.

BCOQ is a labor-related exception part of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Thus, Petri can allege he needs Basque employees in his restaurant since they must be fluent in the Basque language because his restaurant aims to provide an immersive Basque experience to consumers.
