Narrative 11-2
Women working in certain occupational groups at Canada Post were systematically underpaid for nearly 20 years,according to a Supreme Court of Canada ruling in 2011. Women tended to work in clerical roles,whereas men tended to work in postal operations roles (letter carriers,mail handlers,and mail sorters). The Public Service Alliance of Canada argued that the principle of equal pay for equal work wasn't being followed. Canada Post has implemented a Human Resources and Compensation Committee to ensure it complies fully with its myriad accountabilities. Unfortunately,it's not clear that Canada Post has addressed all the inequities within its organization,as another pay equity review,this time involving rural and urban carriers,has launched.
-Refer to Narrative 11-2. Based on the fact that Canada Post has had continued complaints about pay inequity,what does this suggest about its chosen diversity paradigm?
A)It applies the discrimination and fairness paradigm.
B)It applies the access and legitimacy paradigm.
C)It applies the learning and effectiveness paradigm.
D)It has achieved organizational plurality.

The continued complaints about pay inequity at Canada Post suggest that the organization is operating under the discrimination and fairness paradigm, which focuses on ensuring equal opportunity and fair treatment but may not fully address deeper systemic issues or lead to true organizational change.
