But this guy has now set a precedent with a published article claiming he will actively discriminate against male candidates. So as soon as his company scales past 15, a male candidate that was rejected could sue, using that article as evidence.
- jacalata 10y agoHuh, would it apply retroactively? That seems weird.
- forthefuture 10y agoIt's not necessarily retroactively. If he has 10 people (8m, 2f) and wants parity (8m, 8f) then hes guaranteeing that the 16th person he hires will be a woman.
- jacalata 10y agotechnically he could just fire a guy today and then hit parity at 14 and say the initiative is over.
- mc32 10y agoHmm, maybe. I think someone would have to prove they were discriminated against with more evidence in addition to a published article. It has to be proven that it affected the hiring team. I mean, his article would be used as part of evidence but there needs to be more than some self-claim, I would think.
