If they aren't discriminating, what do companies need to know the percentages for?
My previously employer advertised the average age of their employees to me during the interview. I later realized they are calculating that metric because they are discriminating against older people. They wanted young, inexperienced flesh like me.
- respondo2134 4y agoEmployees at my last company complained loudly when the diversity question was asked and the CHRO responded that they didn't collect that info because it was either misleading or of questionable legality. This was by far the youngest & most diverse group I've ever worked with (and I'm an old, white, straight male) so pick your poison.
- blueflow 4y ago> i'm an old, white, straight male Same thing as with diversity metrics: This should not quality or disqualify you from anything, why did you feel the need to mention it? This makes me feel some sort of uneasy. I wouldn't want to be around people who judge me or people in general by random things that "happened" to them at birth.
