In order to protect immigrants and women (?) from alleged discrimination, a few firms will begin in September to accept applications that have nothing to reveal (PI reported). Therefore, no age, no name, no gender… It doesn’t matter whether the employers are against it. They have to be portrayed as the enemy and their hands tied. And a résumé without gaps allows no conclusion to be made according to age? We better forbid that as well.

The Tagesschau writes:

“When applying for employment, women with children, older people or applicants with foreign sounding names have considerably worse chances than others,” complained the leader of the Federal Antidiscrimination Bureau, Christine Lüders. She refers to a current study by the Bonn Institute for the Future of Labor (IZA-Institut zur Zukunft der Arbeit) and the University of Konstanz. This study substantiates the fact that applicants with a Turkish name are put at a disadvantage. In a field test, their chance of receiving an invitation to a second interview was up to around a quarter less than with applicants with a German name.

Lüder’s authorities, therefore, are beginning a pilot study in September on the anonymization of applicants in which five firms will participate. The objective is for businesses to decide based on the professional qualification of an applicant, whether the person will be invited to an interview or not. The cosmetic conglomerate L’Oreal and the consumer goods producer Procter & Gamble will be participating in the test run. The other three businesses will be disclosed on Wednesday.

Beginning in September, these firms will test whether anonymous applications will fetch better chances for a job for older candidates, women or foreigners. In the anonymous process, cover letters will be altered. The name and address of the applicant will not be allowed to show up in the paperwork because the former allows consideration of the background and the latter of the social status of the one interested.

Besides that, the applicant will not supply a photo with his documents nor will he supply birthday or familial position. Thus, discrimination on the basis of age or background will be hampered. People over 50 years and applicants with foreign names simply “would most often be the first ones separated from the stack,” Lüders said to the “Hamburger Abendblatt.”

The employers are against this nonsense. They presumably don’t know that Turkish offspring have the better graduating results. So, the result then is that the sorting out will take place right in the interview.
