Is either the termination or policy discriminatory practice


Problem: Lightweight Airlines terminated a flight attendant because she gained weight since the time they hired her two years prior. Additionally, the airlines determined she was no longer as attractive as the other flight attendants the airline had hired. In fact, the airlines had a policy that stated promotions would be awarded on the basis of attractiveness. A flight attendant's attractiveness was determined by a three-person panel comprised of volunteers from outside the airline's organization. The three-person panel rated flight attendants on a scale of 1(ugly) to 10 (beautiful). Is either the termination or policy a discriminatory practice under the California Fair Employment and Housing Act? Why or why not? Support your decision.
