HAMDT 92 (102nd)

Amendment in the nature of a substitute contained the President's proposal and sought to: provide equitable relief up to $150,000 (after the use of in-house resolution procedures) for victims of job harrassment based on race, sex, color, national origin, and religion; prohibit the use of "race norming" in employment test scores; and codify the Griggs decision which defines "business necessity" in relation to employment practices which have a disparate impact on certain employees.
