What discrimination in employment have you seen?

1.The most common, of course, is school discrimination.

We understand that selecting talents from prestigious schools can save time and costs, and we also understand that students from prestigious schools will have a higher probability of having a high gold content. It's just that sometimes what we don't understand is that even at the same level of universities, there are some schools that are not very valued by employers, especially those with too strong professional words; Some companies are not Fortune 500 companies, but they have the same arrogant attitude.

It is undeniable that the reason why large enterprises are eager to select talents among the 211 985 colleges and universities is because the proportion of talents in prestigious schools will indeed be slightly higher, but this does not mean that there are no suitable talents in other colleges and universities, nor does it mean that everyone in the prestigious schools is eligible. Setting such a threshold is actually essentially to reduce the recruitment cost of enterprises and bet on probability.

2.Geographical discrimination.

Qualifications are earned through individual effort, and people have a greater sense of participation in the process of acquiring them. The natural attribute of region is the label that people bring when they are born, even if we change our household registration, we can't change the regional attribute that we had when we were born.

Geographical discrimination in recruitment is not an isolated case, it is a sensitive topic, and simply rejecting a candidate from a certain place because of prejudice is undoubtedly workplace discrimination.

In fact, companies often prioritize local origins for the sake of recruitment costs. In Shaanxi, where I am located, if it is a company in Xi'an, all parts of Shaanxi Province are welcome; If it is a local enterprise in Baoji, then under the same conditions, priority will definitely be given to college students whose homes are in Baoji.

3.Boys are preferred.

For college students, especially female college students, the most common reason for experiencing employment discrimination is that many companies will clearly mark the words male priority and male only on their job postings.

Although as early as 2019, the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security, the Ministry of Education, the Ministry of Justice, the Health Commission, the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, the Health Insurance Bureau, the All-China Federation of Trade Unions, the All-China Women's Federation, and the Supreme People's Court jointly issued the Notice on Further Regulating Recruitment Practices and Promoting Women's Employment. Among them, the restriction of gender involves employment discrimination.

In fact, boys are popular in many positions for a variety of reasons. Take the administrative post as an example, most of the people who do secretarial work in the impression are beautiful girls, but now more and more corporate executives choose male secretaries, because of "convenience", there will not be many unclear problems. Not to mention jobs that require some manual work, and boys are even more preferred.

1. I'm sorry, we only need 985,211 college graduates.

In the process of submitting resumes, we will find that many companies have issued such conditions as "non-graduate students, doctors or universities are not allowed". In today's increasingly severe employment pressure, academic discrimination has blocked many college students who have just left the door. Although college students who graduated from prestigious universities have a relatively competitive advantage, does the practice of blindly looking at academic qualifications without considering personal ability also turn away a large number of excellent job seekers who have not graduated from prestigious schools?

Second, we don't need women for this position.

Gender discrimination in the job search process is also very common, on the one hand, companies believe that the physical fitness of girls is not as good as that of boys, and they cannot bear excessive workload and a certain amount of manual labor; On the other hand, girls have the right to maternity leave under the protection of the law, and many small and medium-sized enterprises cannot afford to lose money during this period. As a result, many employers try to avoid hiring a large number of women. This practice of the company has undoubtedly deprived many girls of the opportunity to compete fairly.

3. Priority will be given to local residents.

In addition, geographical discrimination is particularly pronounced. Data shows that employees with local hukou have more stable jobs, so companies don't have to worry about employees leaving their jobs at any time, and they don't have to worry about providing accommodation for employees, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone. In many cities, "having a local hukou" has become an important indicator for enterprises to measure the entry threshold.

So, what can we do in the face of employment discrimination by employers?

In the face of this kind of employment discrimination, it is inevitable that job seekers will develop negative feelings. However, it is useless to just complain, we still have to work hard to improve our own ability, and we need to be hard to strike iron.

As job seekers, it is very important for us to maintain a good attitude. When you are treated unfairly, you should use this as a motivation to move forward, strive to improve your own strength, strength is the only magic weapon to crush the rules, and then strive to change the rules. After all, there is no point in complaining, and complaining will not change the status quo.

Because you can't change the hiring standards of the recruiter, and you can't change the minds of others, the only thing you can do is to change yourself. Therefore, when looking for a job, you should make a perfect career plan for yourself, develop your strengths and avoid weaknesses, and analyze your strengths and weaknesses, so that you can stand out in the vast army of job seekers.

Most of them are reflected in gender and age issues! Gender is objective, and some jobs are indeed more suitable for men. Although women are now half the sky, it is not right to violate objective facts and rules to force certain positions.

Therefore, the relevant national finch bush departments generally have standardized arguments and will determine the positions that are not suitable for women. The issue of age is more determined by the national conditions of the country. We are now in the midst of an explosion of labor force growth.

There are more and more discrimination in the lead industry, and even the reasons of some companies can be said to be wonderful, and they will not be hired if they have not been in love At the spring job fair of Xiamen University 2015 graduates, a marketing planning company played such a slogan: "During college, you have never been in love, you have not been chased, and you don't even have a crush?" Then you don't use it!

Coincidentally, Xiao Huang, a graduate of finance from Zhejiang University of Finance and Economics, went to apply for a first-class monitoring equipment company in Hangzhou, and the interviewer didn't even give her the opportunity to intern after learning that she had no love experience in college. "It is difficult for foreign monks to recite scriptures" In 2013, Jiang Yaping, a female college student from Anhui, was rejected because she was not registered in Nanjing when she applied for the position of ** consultant of the Nanjing Municipal Human Resources and Social Security Bureau. After 15 months of marathon rights protection lawsuits, in August of the same year, Jiang Yaping finally got 10,000 yuan in compensation.

According to the results of a survey released by Zero, of urban residents said they had encountered employment discrimination when they were employed, and academic discrimination became the most common phenomenon of employment discrimination. Recruitment advertising is an important way for enterprises and institutions to recruit talents, and now the rapid development of the Internet, recruitment advertisements are also more widely disseminated through various Internet means.

On the one hand, the recruitment advertisement should attract the needs of the enterprise, and on the other hand, it should clarify the conditions of the candidates and accurately recruit them. Race, gender, household registration, age, etc. are the most common recruitment requirements with employment discrimination, and some job advertisements clearly indicate that they are required to be at least 170 tall, good-looking, unmarried, not pregnant, and not to be seated. According to reports, the survey used multi-stage random sampling to conduct household interviews with 2,402 permanent residents aged 18 to 60, including 1,487 urban residents and 915 small town residents.

The survey results show that some urban residents have encountered different types of employment discrimination in employment. Among respondents who had experienced employment discrimination, academic discrimination was the most common, with those reporting academic discrimination, age discrimination (and experience discrimination, which also occurred frequently). In addition, some respondents have experienced gender discrimination.

It is worth noting that various emerging forms of employment discrimination are also emerging, such as discrimination against non-elite schools (etc.).

Of course, I have encountered this experience during the application process.

1. Academic discrimination, compared with other discrimination, this may be the most "fair" one. "Academicism" is the most obvious feature of academic discrimination. Educational discrimination has emerged as a new form, and it is expanding day by day.

Some of the top 500 or central enterprises rank schools according to well-known foreign universities, "985", "211", ordinary colleges and universities, two books, and three books, and clearly indicate that only graduates from designated colleges and universities are recruited. 985,211 is not only synonymous with famous schools, but also has become the halo of many companies flaunting themselves.

2. Sexism may be the most common type of disagreement at the head. Unequal conditions such as "limited to men" and "female students' height meters" are no longer new, "some even put forward the requirement that girls must ensure that they do not change jobs, do not get married, do not remarry, and are not mothers within three years." The "Survey Report on the Employment and Entrepreneurship of Female College Students" published by the Development Department of the All-China Women's Federation pointed out that the interviewed female college students felt that "female students have fewer opportunities" in the process of job hunting. of female college students surveyed felt gender bias from their employers.

3. Regional discrimination, which is also the most controversial place of recruitment discrimination on a ** network - the Yellow Flood Area and Northeast people. Naming and naming people does not recruit Henan and Northeast people, and regional discrimination is becoming more and more obvious. As early as the period of the planned economy, there was the phenomenon of "not allowing urban enterprises and institutions to recruit rural people without permission."

In recent years, the gap between rural and urban areas has become smaller, and regional discrimination has slowly begun to evolve into local and non-local.

4. Age discrimination, we have discussed before the issue of "Huawei asks old employees over 34 years old to retire" and the problem of mid-life workplace crisis. If you do a statistic, you will find that many companies have written "under 35 years old" into the recruitment information, and the age of 35 has become a watershed in the workplace. And the age limit has shifted towards a younger age.

5. Discrimination in appearance, Xiao A, who works in a large real estate company, said that the female employees of the administrative department and the human resources department are all tall and have a good temperament, "all of them are above 1.7 meters, but the requirements for male employees are not so high, and some are less than 1.7 meters." "In corporate recruitment, appearance, age, height, temperament, etc. have become added value for female labor.

Of course, I have had this experience. In the real world of recruitment, discrimination such as gender, age, geography and even accent is ubiquitous. This has indeed brought trouble and interview obstacles to many friends.

So what should we do when we encounter employment discrimination? 1. Face up to reality and make full psychological and ideological preparations. Equal employment is a basic right granted to citizens by China's laws, but in reality, due to various reasons, employment discrimination will exist for a long time and have an impact for a certain period of time, which is inevitable in a short period of time.

2. Learn to deal with possible discrimination. Usually establish the concept of "everyone is equal before the profession", establish self-confidence, and do not follow the crowd. You can find a friend who is an HR person for consultation, guide you on your job search direction and job search skills, find out your strengths or weaknesses, and what discrimination you may encounter in job hunting, and then face it calmly.

3. When encountering discrimination, we must learn to argue on the basis of reason, resort to law when necessary, and use the law to protect our legitimate rights and interests. As a worker, the first thing to solve employment discrimination is to face up to your own situation, be honest and trustworthy, dare to say no to employment discrimination, apply the law in accordance with the law, and protect your legitimate rights and interests. Fourth, workplace discrimination is actually not uncommon, and people in the workplace have seen or experienced it to a greater or lesser extent.

There are many types of it, such as sexual discrimination, age discrimination, education discrimination, etc., in addition, regional discrimination is still very common in modern society. Discrimination in the workplace has caused the already disadvantaged groups to be treated unfairly, their development has been hindered, and even the opportunity to compete has been deprived, and they have slowly fallen into a vicious circle.

Therefore, if you want the company to develop better, you must recruit wise men, not stick to one pattern, and associate the development direction and planning of employees and the company with each other, so as to make progress together, so as to achieve a win-win situation. In short, discrimination is not uncommon in today's recruitment interview process, but we must not "choke on food", we still have to be brave enough to try and strive for more and better results.

Some companies stipulate that they must know dialects in their recruitment requirements, and some stipulate constellations. In addition, the requirement that women are married and have children, or not less than 35 years old, has been openly written on the recruitment platform. I have also had the experience of looking for a job, and I have also encountered some more "reasonable" requirements, such as the age limit mentioned above, the professional background required for non-professional positions, etc.

Compared with the excitement of the crowd after the event, I am angry, but I also want to dig deeper: where does the company's confidence come from for such unscrupulous employment discrimination?

Due to the work related to the ** chain, I have been in contact with many business owners, and in terms of recruitment conditions, to be honest, most of them are relatively normal. Occasionally, when I encountered a more bizarre one, the bosses bent slowly and slowly talked about it in a small area, and did not dare to write it in the recruitment announcement, and even I once thought that employment discrimination was really a case.

Until one time, when I was talking to a boss about business, when I talked about the attitude towards employees, this boss couldn't deliver the goods at that time. blurted out in anger: I opened the company, I have the final say on what kind of person I find, I want to come, I don't want to leave!

Later, I asked several bosses about this question, and the answers I received either tactfully or directly were the same as the previous boss.

2. Where does the confidence come from?

Our country has gone through the historical process of developed countries for hundreds of years in a few decades, and the economy has continued to maintain a high growth rate. In this context, the economic growth rate will be closer and closer to the national level, that is, it will gradually decline, which is an inevitable trend and is in line with economic principles. Coupled with the impact of the epidemic for three consecutive years and the continuous and complex international situation, although "difficulty in employment" and "difficulty in recruitment" are widespread, employment difficulties still account for a large proportion.
