A job interviewer asks a woman about her plans to have a family. She eventually does not get the job, because she lacks
qualifications which are listed as essential in the person specification. However, she later finds out that men who attended
interviews were not asked questions about their plans to have a family.
Which of the following statements correctly describes the situation?
Rationale： The organisation has laid itself open to a claim of indirect discrimination, because ifthe selection decision had been made on the basis of a question asked of a woman but not of men, it may have been construed as such. (This rules out
options D and A.) The claim would not succeed (ruling out option B) because the organisation would be able to justify the
apparently discriminatory conditions on non-discriminatory (job-relevant) grounds.Pitfalls： You need to get to grips with the
basics of how this works, and recognise examples when you see them.
