Multiple Choice

Ron and Roderick were American employees at a publishing firm. The company employed 22 workers, most of who were French or spoke French. There were constant complaints pertaining to language issues by Ron and Roderick. The company subsequently adopted an "English-only" policy, requiring employees to speak in English while conducting business. The French employees and the union then filed a lawsuit against the company, alleging that the English-only policy violated Title VII.

• A)there wasn't enough evidence that the rule was actually implemented.
• B)there were no reasonable grounds to justify that provisions of Title VII were violated.
• C)there were not a sufficient number of employees to support the union.
• D)there were a large number of English speaking employees in the company.
