The prohibition does not affect the right of an employer to inquire regarding an individual's military status for the purpose of awarding a preference to veterans as permitted by law. Any private employer that violates the prohibition, which is incorporated into the Virginia Human Rights Act, is subject to a civil penalty of $100 for each violation.
