Visiting job fairs in Enterprises: sex discrimination as a "stubborn disease" in the workplace
4 17 months, the spring breeze is warm, hundreds of enterprises from all over Shandong in Shandong Gymnasium "stand up", hundreds of job seekers come to the top.
reporter quickly discovered a phenomenon: recruitment units see male job seekers, showing high enthusiasm, at least let job seekers leave a resume. Although men and women are basically half and half of the job seekers, 80% of them are male job seekers. Look at the position provided by the employer, more than 60% are marketing, planning, engineering and other personnel; some posts are marked as long as girls, basically the beauty parlor, hotels and other units.
"my sister is a graduating graduate this year, studying design major, do you want a girl?" said Mr. Li, the reporter and the personnel manager of a biological company. "So do the girls, but it doesn't need a lot. We need a large number of sales staff, enterprises, we must recruit people who can create benefits. " "Girls can also run their business!" "girls are always inconvenient, and they soon get married and have children."
a job seeker claiming to be Li Qin told reporters that he had worked in a communications company for three years when he graduated from university. Because the child resigned, and now the child is over a year old, she wants to find another job. But after several recruitment meetings, she felt that employers were deeply discriminated against women. Every time she goes to put her resume, she is always asked a lot of questions: "are you married?" "when do you want to have children?" "do children look after?" "can you work overtime?"
Song Lihui, a German student at Shandong Jianzhu University, also hit his luck. She once went to a German funded enterprise with her classmates to apply for a job, and the other side politely told them that because of their inconvenient travel, they suggested that they should "change their doors". Song Lihui is extroverted and wants to do some challenging work like marketing. Unfortunately, most employers do not have girls in marketing positions. After a few recruitment sessions, because she was learning a small language, she felt that employment was getting narrower and narrower.
of course, there are also many young college students who think that many units do not want girls to be normal. Wang Ching and friends from Shandong University of Traditional Chinese Medicine participated in several recruitment meetings. They consciously and unconsciously targeted the work of "stability". Wang Qing said, many girls feel that girls are not suitable for running around, and find a stable job like clerks and clerks.
reporters asked dozens of household units, saying that men and women were not restricted. In the hundreds of household units, there is no single unit or one post marked as long as boys. What's interesting is that later, reporters sent text messages to the personnel managers of 10 units to ask if they wanted girls. Only 3 of them replied, and one of them explicitly asked for girls.
Li Xiaoqiang worked as a headhunter after graduating from university. He has had a deep feeling about sex discrimination in employment over the past year. At work, he found that women, especially those unmarried women aged 25 to 30, find jobs very difficult. After communicating with employers, he was informed that employers were worried that they had reached the age of childbirth, and that marriage leave and maternity leave were bound to be granted. Especially when women are born, they will have a lot of energy to spend on family. Although a lot of employers do not use girls in the dark, there are not many women to protect their rights. Many women feel that the employers do not recruit girls are the freedom of the unit, so gender discrimination has become a common phenomenon.
"in fact, there are many provisions for equal employment of men and women in the law, such as the constitution, the law on the protection of women's rights and interests, and so on, all stipulate equal employment rights for men and women." Li Jingtao, a lawyer in Ji'nan, said that because of the lack of rights, the law does not stipulate what liability should be taken by employers, causing sex discrimination to become a "stubborn disease" in the workplace. To cure this "stubborn disease" requires women to be self reliant and self reliant and dare to safeguard their rights. It also needs the improvement of laws and regulations and the efforts of law enforcement departments.
