Best Answer

Allowing employee or applicant race, sex, age, religion, color, or disabilty to be given any weight or consideration in employment decisions in workplaces with more than 14 employees.

Including any other factor in decisions - attendance, skill, education, ability to learn, personality, or anything not prohibited in a statute is LAWFUL discrimination, and very common.
