Okay oicur 12, YOU SAY that discrimination is not limited to age, sex, credd, colour, religion, diability etc as above. Where is YOUR evidence? Examples please?. .. .My bush lawyer knowledge suggests you are wrong. What other discrimination is there?. .. .Example: A woman was refused entry to a nightclub by a bouncer. He said she was ugly and could not come in! As is the case nowadays she sought a resolution (money) through the courts for discrimination.. .The court found that :. .1: Being private property the nightclub had the right to refuse her entry and. .2: The bouncer's comment that she was ugly, whilst offensive to her, was not discrimination as defined in legislation.. .. .I noticed somewhere else that two FAs were supposedly refused employment because they were too short. SURE. Does anyone really think the airline would put THAT in the "thanks but no thanks" letter? Get real. So that means the individuals THOUGHT that was the reason but they don't know and probably never will.. .. .As far as ex scabs, heroes whatever not being employed. You will NEVER find out from ANY company why they didn't employ you for obvious reasons, so get over it.. .. .The bottom line is, it is great to have rights but no use if they are unenforceable. IF there was a LIST and that influenced hiring policy, how on earth will you ever prove it?. .. .Move on.
