discrimination discussion.
I’m trying to study for my English course and I need some help to understand this question.
/0x4*
Read all of the scenarios below and consider whether each is an example of discrimination.
- Scenario 1: An older employee is laid off because he’s the highest paid and possibly also “outdated.”
- Scenario 2: A pregnant woman is passed over for a job promotion because management thinks she won’t be able to travel.
- Scenario 3: Not wanting anyone to be taken by surprise, the shift supervisor informs the staff that a transgendered employee will be coming on board in the next week.
- Scenario 4: A supervisor is told to hire a person of color even though a Caucasian is more qualified.
- Scenario 5: Several Christian employees celebrate Christmas together by exchanging gifts with one another at work.
- In your first post, explain whether each scenario is an example of discrimination. Explain why or why not.
- Respond to at least two classmates whose opinions you do not agree with, explaining why you do not agree, or presenting another possible view.
