Genevieve applies for a job as a security guard at a diamond mine. The primary job of security guards is to perform body-cavity searches on the miners, at the end of each shift, to ensure the miners are not stealing diamonds. Part of each guard's compensation is based upon the number of stolen diamond recoveries they accomplish by way of the searches. Since only male guards are assigned to search male miners and only female guards are assigned to search female miners, Genevieve is assigned to conduct searches exclusively on female miners. She files a claim of gender discrimination alleging that since male miners attempt more diamond thefts than female miners, the opportunity to augment her compensation through diamond recoveries is lower than that of male guards and, consequently, the policy of allowing her to search only women is having an illegally discriminatory, disparate impact on her compensation, on the basis of gender. Is Genevieve correct? must be at lease 200 words and How are the Equal Pay Act (EPA) and Title VII of the Civil Rights Act different, and how might these differences affect an employee who is seeking relief against wage discrimination based on sex/gender? At lease 200 words Please cite at least the attached Bennett-Alexander, D. D., & Hartman, L. P. (2009). Employment law for business (6th ed.). New York, NY: McGraw-Hill.
