 Yes, but only when it specifically relates to the ability to perform the job.  A strip club owner is not required to hire fat or unattractive people because being hot is part of doing a good job there.  Smoking does not make you a bad employee.

 What is the point of firing someone for bad credit?  I don't get it.  How does that effect performance.
It's a scary trend we are seeing.  Why should our employers be allowed to dictate what goes on in our personal life?
