2.35 - Effect of DOL support on Title VII employment nondiscrimination requirements and on other existing statutes.
A religious organization's exemption from the Federal prohibition on employment discrimination on the basis of religion, set forth in ? 702(a) of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, 42 U.S.C. ? 2000e-1, is not forfeited when the organization receives direct or indirect DOL support. Some DOL programs, however, were established through Federal statutes containing independent statutory provisions requiring that recipients refrain from discriminating on the basis of religion. Accordingly, to determine the scope of any applicable requirements, recipients and potential recipients should consult with the appropriate DOL program official or with the Civil Rights Center, U.S. Department of Labor, 200 Constitution Avenue, NW., Room N4123, Washington, DC 20210, (202) 693-6500. Individuals with hearing or speech impairments may access this telephone number via TTY by calling the toll-free Federal Information Relay Service at 1-800-877-8339.
