What is a BFOQ? Should BFOQs be allowed?

Business

Ulleksa [173]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

In employment law, a bona fide occupational qualification (BFOQ) (US) or bona fide occupational requirement (BFOR) (Canada) or genuine occupational qualification (GOQ) (UK) is a quality or an attribute that employers are allowed to consider when making decisions on the hiring and retention of employees—a quality that when considered in other contexts would constitute discrimination and thus be in violation of civil rights employment law. Such qualifications must be listed in the employment offering.[citation needed]

Explanation:

Canada

The law of Canada regarding bona fide occupational requirements was considered in a 1985 Canadian court case involving an employee of the Canadian National Railway, K. S. Bhinder, a Sikh whose religion required that he wear a turban, lost his challenge of the CNR policy that required him to wear a hard hat.[1] In 1990, in deciding another case, the Supreme Court of Canada amended the Bhinder decision: "An employer that has not adopted a policy with respect to accommodation and cannot otherwise satisfy the trier of fact that individual accommodation would result in undue hardship will be required to justify his conduct with respect to the individual complainant. Even then the employer can invoke the BFOQ defence."[2]

United States

In employment discrimination law in the United States, both Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Age Discrimination in Employment Act contain a BFOQ defense. The BFOQ provision of Title VII provides that:

[I]t shall not be an unlawful employment practice for an employer to hire and employ employees, for an employment agency to classify, or refer for employment any individual, for a labor organization to classify its membership or to classify or refer for employment any individual, or for an employer, labor organization, or joint labor-management committee controlling apprenticeship or other training or retraining programs to admit or employ any individual in any such program, on the basis of his religion, sex, or national origin in those certain instances where religion, sex, or national origin is a bona fide occupational qualification reasonably necessary to the normal operation of that particular business or enterprise ...[3]

Garfield Corp. expects to sell 1,300 units of its pet beds in March and 900 units in April. Each unit sells for $110. Garfield’s
Svetach [21]

Answer:

$47,200

Explanation:

For computing the budgeted purchase, first we have to determine the purchase unit which is shown below:

= Sale units + ending inventory units - beginning inventory units

where,

Sale units are 1,300 units

Ending inventory units = 900 units × 30% = 270 units

Beginning inventory units = 1,300 × 30% = 390 units

Now put these units to the above formula  

So, the units would equal to

= 1,300 units + 270 units - 390 units

= 1,180 units

Now the budgeted purchase would be

= 1,180 units × $40

= $47,200
