Question 2

Disparate impact claims exist where an employer's facially neutral employment practices, such as the pay scale, benefits adjustments or layoffs, though making no adverse references to age, have a significantly adverse or disparate impact on older employees, and the specially identified practices in question are not shown to be based on reasonable factors other than age. What does the Court's ruling allowing disparate impact claims mean for employers when setting policies that may affect their older workers?

Answer to Question 2

The Court's ruling in Smith v. City of Jackson means that employers will have to scrutinize their policies to make sure that they do not unreasonably affect older workers. The RFOA provision does permit employers to take actions that would otherwise be prohibited if they are based on reasonable factors other than age  RFOA.
