Discrimination
is rife in the job market
I guess we all know that discrimination
is rife in the job market. But did you know that most employers
will not admit to it and when challenged they deny it although
the AFFECTS CAN BE VERY REAL. Discrimination could:
- Cost you the job you want...
- Cost you the job you are qualified to do...
- Result at you being offered a job at a lower salary
than they offer to others...
- Result in you not being promoted...
- Cause you to be sidelined and ignored at work...
- Result in you not receiving an increase in salary when
others are rewarded...
- Cause you to lose your job...
- Affect your ability to provide for your family...
- Result in you not been trained in the organization...
