Answer to Question 1

Affirmative action is not required by Title VII, nor is it prohibited. Affirmative action programs have three different sources: litigation, voluntary action, and government contracts. Courts have the power under Title VII to order affirmative action to remedy the effects of past discrimination. Employers can voluntarily introduce an affirmative action plan to remedy the effects of past practices or to achieve equitable representation of minorities and women. The government may use affirmative action programs when awarding contracts only if (1 ) it can show that the programs are needed to overcome specific past discrimination; (2 ) they have time limits; and (3 ) nondiscriminatory alternatives are not available.

Answer to Question 2

FALSE
