the regulations violated by the human resource representative at this startup?
(1 point)
O Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA)
O Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)
O Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA)
O Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC)

Answer 1

The correct answer is: O Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC).

The EEOC enforces federal laws that make it illegal to discriminate against a job applicant or an employee based on characteristics such as sex, race, color, national origin, disability, and religion. The situation described involves inappropriate questions about marital status and suggestive comments, which can be seen as sexual harassment and discrimination based on gender.
