Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Equal Pay Act, enacted in the year of 1963, is the act which has been brought into establishment under the labor law category, which is legislated in the United States of America. This was primarily introduced for the gender gap to be abolished in wages.

There had been problems of gender gap wages where, male used to earn more for the same working hours or work done than the females. This act enabled the companies to provide for same wages for any gender abolishing discrimination. The condition for work and its environment be equal for any gender and thus, refusing to hire a mother female is illegal.
