Equity is semantically equality. I'm not sure I see your point.
Are people being paid differently for the work? Or are you saying there is a policy driven filter attempting to offset some of society's pre-existing filtering (thus giving equality of opportunity)?
- enchiridion 5y agoSemantically maybe they are similar, but in the sociological parlance they mean very different things. Yes, equality of opportunity is a good thing. If you have the qualifications, anyone should be given equal consideration. Changing or relaxing requirements in order to attempt some societal good is wrong. Those issues should be addressed upstream of any employment decisions, mainly by removing impediments to success, not by preferential treatment.
