Question: 1 / 400

Which of the following is prohibited by the antidiscrimination clause of IRCA?

Discrimination based on education

Discrimination based on national origin or citizenship

The antidiscrimination clause of the Immigration Reform and Control Act (IRCA) specifically prohibits discrimination based on national origin or citizenship status. This legislation was enacted to prevent employers from discriminating against individuals in hiring, firing, or recruitment based on their citizenship or where they come from. The goal is to ensure that all individuals, regardless of their national origin or citizenship, have equal access to employment opportunities.

In contrast, discrimination based on education, age, or disability falls under different laws and regulations, such as the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA) for age, the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) for disability, and does not pertain to the specific prohibitions set forth in IRCA. Thus, the correct answer focuses on the unique protections provided under the IRCA against discrimination linked to national origin or citizenship.
