Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Gender or sex-typing of occupations links occupational role with gender role, suggesting that certain jobs are more suited for men or women based on societal expectations and stereotypes. While progress has been made in reducing discrimination based on gender in hiring practices, biases and stereotypes still exist and can influence hiring decisions. Therefore, option A is incorrect. Option B is also incorrect as despite efforts to promote equality, hiring biases and discrimination can still occur even when the best and most qualified person is identified for a job.
