discrimination in the criminal justice workplace  

Definición

  • At the beginning of the twentieth century, there were virtually no women or minorities employed in the U.S. criminal justice system, as employment discrimination by law and practice kept qualified individuals from pursuing criminal justice careers. Although changes in employment law since the 1960s have reversed the legal bias, some discrimination still exists.
