Multiple Choice Hard

Practice question

A company makes sterilization a condition for a promotion and places the condition in a signed employment document. The employee challenges the promotion condition. The company relies solely on the signature to claim that the statutory prohibition cannot apply. Which answer correctly addresses Section 23(c)?
  1. Every signed employment term is immune from labor statutes.
  2. Sterilization can be required for any promotion without restriction.
  3. The signature alone does not legalize the employer-imposed condition expressly prohibited by Section 23(c).
  4. Promotion is never mentioned in the provision.
  5. Only handwritten conditions are prohibited.
