Social Problem Discrimination Over Sexual Orientation in the U.S. Workplace
Pizer et.al went on to state show that 37 percent of the LGBT people have gone to experience workplace harassment during their time there. Furthermore, 12 percent of these people have also gone to lose their job only because of their sexual orientation. The most recent data is of 2011 in which 90% of respondents to a survey of transgender people reported discrimination or mistreatment at work. Furthermore, 47% of the people went on to state that they were discriminated against during the process of hiring, promotion or job retention only due to their gender orientation. This has become a social problem because discrimination carried out by employers leads to a mismatch between qualified workers and jobs that are suited for them. (Klobuchar 1) In the long run, it is seen that this mismatch decreases productivity. It is obvious that a decrease in productivity would go on to harm not only the businesses but also the workers and the economy.
