Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Job discrimination occurs when someone is treated unfairly in the workplace based on certain characteristics such as their race, gender, religion, age, etc. Refusing to hire or promote someone for non-job related reasons can be considered discrimination because it means that the decision is not based on the person's qualifications or ability to perform the job, but rather on factors that have nothing to do with their job performance. Prejudice and bias can be factors that contribute to job discrimination, but discrimination is the actual act of unfairly treating someone based on certain characteristics. "Right to work" is a term that refers to laws that allow employees in certain states to work without being required to join a union, and is not related to the topic of job hiring or promotion.
