Min applies for a job as a receptionist at an accounting firm. If she is denied a job because she is of Asian origin, she may be a victim of disparate-treatment discrimination.

Answer: Option C

<u>Explanation:</u>

Disparate treatment discrimination is a type of discrimination as per the US labor laws and is based in the class or race of a person. If Min is Asian, she would probably be denied the job because of her origin and race. This type of discrimination is considered to be unlawful.

A person who received this treatment has the right to contest the discrimination. In this case, if Min is not given the job, she can file a plea in the civil court against the discrimination.
