A question
The BBC answers questions about the new Equality Act. I notice that one question is conspicuous by its absence:

Rules for submitting comments:
1. No profanity. I maintain the pretense that this is a family-friendly site.
2. Stay on topic. A bit of straying and off-hand commenting is okay, but hijacking the discussion is right out.
3. No ad hominem attacks. Attack the subject, not the other person on the thread and keep the discussion civil.
4. No spamming or commercial endorsements. These get deleted immediately.
Tip: Beware of putting hyperlinks in your comments–especially at the end. For some reason, Blogger interprets these as spam.
Note: Due to the recent spate of anonymous spamming, registration for comments is now required.

So what would you recommend a person do instead if they found out they were being paid less just because of their sex, age, race, or religion?
ReplyDeleteI would recommend that they not pass legislation that is the equivalent of treating an ingrown toenail by establishing a police state.
ReplyDeleteI suppose rather than sweeping legislation, going to work someplace else would be out of the question.
ReplyDeleteIf an employee is that valuable a smart company is going to compensate them no matter who or what they are, and if they aren't that valuable I guess they can go cry to the government or the union thugs, or (horrors) go elsewhere.
Everyone seems to forget that jobs belong to the companies that create them, not to the people that occupy them.
