Actually the line of what constitutes "discrimination on the basis of sex, nationality, religion, etc" is a question that can be decided by the courts, which seems to be the goal here - to convince a court to rule that unnecessary use of background checks is not permissible if it results ...

I don't think that the current EEOC cares whether or not Sheetz is compliant with what Federal law currently requires.
