§ 1608.11 Limitations on the application of these guidelines.

(a) No determination of adequacy of plan or program. These Guidelines are applicable only with respect to the circumstances described in § 1608.1(d), of this part. They do not apply to, and the section 713(b)(1) defense is not available for the purpose of, determining the adequacy of an affirmative action plan or program to eliminate discrimination. Whether an employer who takes such affirmative action has done enough to remedy such discrimination will remain a question of fact in each case.
