Explanation:

Based on the information provided the most likely theory of discrimination that would be pursued would be the theory of disparate treatment. This is a theory that is used in order to prove illegal employment discrimination within a company, by claiming that they have been treated differently than others in the same situations because of a protected characteristic, such as age, disability, gender reassignment, race, religion or belief, sex, sexual orientation.
