Employment Related Discrimination Based on Personal Beliefs?

lundi 1 décembre 2014

Asking for a friend, of course.



Obviously, there are very strict rules in place regarding hiring decisions, protected classes, etc. However, I'm interested in knowing the extent of anti-discrimination laws in other matters semi-related to hiring, such as choosing who to tell about an open job opportunity.



For example, assume a company will be hiring 5 EL's. The job position is publicly posted on the internet for everyone to see. You can think of a few applicants who may meet the qualifications for the position, but because they are highly political individuals (or possibly you just don't agree with their politics) you don't reach out to personally tell them about the job. On the other hand, you do extend personal invitations to some others to apply. You may or may not be involved in the actual hiring decision and/or interview process.



Did any improper discrimination take place? Does it matter if the person belongs to a protected class or not (KKK sympathizer vs strong religious opinions)? I know that typically the solution is to not document anything regarding hiring, but if you reach out to someone but not others there may already be a paper trail. Can that be used against you?
