What is discrimination in employment?
1, sexism

The most common discrimination is that women are in a natural weak position in employment because of pregnancy and breastfeeding. Although there are legal agreements in the country, as long as enterprises do not publish agreements restricting women in recruitment news, it is not illegal. At the same time, when screening resumes, they don't look at women's resumes at all, which is real discrimination, but you can't help it. After all, enterprises have their own principles and standards of employing people to survive, which is more prominent in private enterprises. Women can't work normally for at least 1 year from pregnancy to delivery, and enterprises can understand their concerns. Therefore, it is not easy to say that on the one hand, women have to raise their offspring, and on the other hand, they have to be discriminated against in employment. I hope that the employment environment of our female compatriots will become more and more relaxed.

2. Age discrimination

Age discrimination is particularly prominent, and the phenomenon of 35 years old is one of them. Some people have investigated the job advertisements in Shanghai and Chengdu (300,000 copies) and found that more than 80% of the positions in Shanghai require candidates to be under 35 years old, while in Chengdu, the proportion is close to 70%. The upper age limit for civil servants across the country is generally 35 years old. It can be said that 35 years old has become an insurmountable age threshold for everyone to choose a job. This is particularly prominent in the Internet industry and the real estate industry. No matter how good the education is, the background has a halo and there is no chance. 35 years old, young and experienced. How can I get to the point where everyone abandons me? It can only be said that our involution is too serious, and at the same time, the pressure of enterprise survival is too great, and we are too hard.

3. Image discrimination (height, weight, appearance)

Not many companies write their height and weight clearly. After all, now is the Internet age, and it is easy to be criticized. But this kind of discrimination is also very powerful.

Nowadays, many high-end positions pay special attention to height and image when recruiting. Because they have to go to various occasions, banquets, press conferences and business negotiations, the image of executives is related to the face of enterprises, so the poor image is likely to be lost by PK. It is a fact that beautiful girls and boys like everyone they meet. People with high face value have far more opportunities in the workplace than people with average face value, whether you admit it or not. This is one of the reasons why medical beauty plastic surgery and fitness slimming are so popular now.

4. Academic discrimination

At present, most enterprises have basic requirements for fresh graduates, so it is very important to study full-time undergraduate, which is why I suggest you do everything possible to study undergraduate, even if it is a very general undergraduate or a private undergraduate, but at least it is a full-time undergraduate, which has reached the lowest threshold.

In addition to the first degree, many large enterprises still have a contempt chain for recruiting people. For example, in architecture, many enterprises only look at the graduates from the "Old Eight Schools" (Tsinghua, Tongji, Southeast, Tianjin, South China University of Technology, Chongqing, Chongqing, Harbin Institute of Technology and Xi University of Architecture and Technology). For example, financial talents give priority to students who graduated from "two finances and one trade" (Central University of Finance and Economics, Shanghai University of Finance and Economics, university of international business and economics).

5. Health discrimination

Why does the company require applicants to have a physical examination before applying for a job? In fact, it is also to avoid related risks. For example, candidates have a heart attack, and if they get sick in a few days, they will be in big trouble. Including civil servants who have passed the interview, also need to undergo a medical examination. We can understand these practices of enterprises and units, so it is also important to keep healthy.

6. Geographical discrimination

Regional discrimination also exists objectively.
