Suppose Harvey applies,but is rejected based on his gender.If he files a disparate treatment claim,LL STEAM would be able to defend based on quid pro quo.

Question

Keller Casey · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : False, Explanation :  The defense of quid pro quo does not apply in this case, as it typically refers to situations where an employee is asked to engage in sexual activities in exchange for employment benefits or promotions. Instead, the relevant issue in this scenario would be whether LL STEAM engaged in sex discrimination by rejecting Harvey for the modeling job based on his gender.
