practice for any labor organization when race, color, creed, religion, ancestry, national
origin, sex, sexual orientation, familial status, gender identity, disability, age,
marital status, status with regard to a public assistance program, housing status,
justice-impacted status, height and weight, or any combination thereof is a motivating
factor:

(3)

To discriminate against a person seeking membership or a member with respect to his
hiring, apprenticeship, tenure, compensation, terms, upgrading, conditions, facilities,
or privileges of employment.

(4)

To fail to classify properly, or refer for employment or otherwise to discriminate
against a person or member.

(5)

To fail to make reasonable accommodation to the known disability of a qualified person
with a disability unless the labor organization can demonstrate that the accommodation

In determining whether an accommodation would impose an undue hardship on the operation
of a labor organization, factors to be considered include:

a.

number and type of facilities in which those members are employed.

b.

The type of operation, including the composition and structure of the work force.

c.

The nature and cost of the needed accommodation.
