Why would be illegal for company to want to hire whoever they want to?

• m-p-3 7y ago
  That would be discrimination of a person indirectly based on their age (personal characteristic you cannot change), which is a big no no. In order to be non-discriminatory, a person has to be hired according to their ability to do the job, without consideration to their ethnicity, age, skin color, etc. A language can be learned, so requiring someone to speak specific languages to apply is non-discriminatory.

    Not a lawyer. Not legal advice. It's my understanding language requirements are acceptable - it's a skill required to complete a job and language isn't a protected class, much like age, race, sex, sexual orientation, etc. is in many jurisdictions.

    > ability to do the job, without consideration to their ethnicity, age, skin color, etc. What about modelling? Do those rules apply also there? https://www.refinery29.com/en-gb/2018/11/218140/choco-media-models-black-women-agency https://www.refinery29.com/en-gb/2018/11/218140/choco-media-...
