[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Title VII (employment discrimination law) only applies to employers with 15 or more employees. While some state or local laws may apply to employers of fewer employees, I doubt any would apply to an individual hiring a caregiver in their home. It's definitely off-putting, but when it comes to a nanny, is this any different than sending a child to a Christian or other religious school? I mean, they may actually be looking for some early religious education from the nanny. I'm an atheist, so it isn't something in which I would be interested, but I can see legitimate reasons for someone else to have this preference/requirement. [/quote] Religious schools have an exemption. You need to learn about how these laws work. As has been posted above, DC has local laws preventing discrimination on the basis of protected classes for every employment situation, even if there is only 1 employee. [/quote]
