Definición

  • Discrimination in the labor market often reflects the patterns of bias and inequality prevalent more broadly in society, and since labor markets allocate not only jobs but also the social status, power, and monetary resources associated with those jobs, it can reify and reinforce those broader inequities. Discrimination is the differential treatment of individuals based on their characteristics or group membership that negatively impacts the individuals’ outcomes.
