Disparate treatment: exists when individuals in similar situations are intentionally treated differently and the different treatment is based on an individual’s membership in a protected class.
Disparate impact: occurs when an officially neutral employment practice disproportionately excludes the members of a protected group; it is generally considered to be unintentional, but intent is irrelevant.
Pattern or practice discrimination: occurs when a person or group engages in a sequence of actions over a significant period of time that is intended to deny the rights provided by Title VII of the 1964 CRA to a member of a protected class.
