"the person's politics"
I interpreted it as a how a person deals with internal politics not what their political views are. the latter would most definitely be illegal.
- ambulancechaser 8y agofrom the OP > It stands for “emotional quotient” and they ask you a bunch of questions about diversity, feminism... They watch your responses for tone and vocabulary and can veto your hire if they deem you insufficiently enthusiastic. It sounds very much like your opinions on current political topics.
- extra88 8y agoI don't think the latter* is illegal because it's not discrimination against a member of a protected class. That doesn't make it okay or that it couldn't lead to other trouble.
- zephharben 8y agoCalifornia law provides some protection from discrimination by employers based on political affiliation or activities. NY state and Washington DC have similar statutes.
- delinka 8y agoBut it’s not “affiliation” nor “activities.” It’s “is their stance on topic X compatible with ours?” Still terrible. Still not illegal.
