Affirmative action is a program designed to promote equal opportunities in workplaces by intentionally employing individuals from underrepresented groups, such as minorities and women. The program aims to counteract the effects of past discrimination by ensuring that these groups have fair access to employment opportunities. It is not prejudicial or discriminatory, but rather seeks to redress historic inequalities in the workforce.
