Is it reasonable for enterprises to recruit only single employees?

I think it is unreasonable for an enterprise to be single when applying for a job. There is no doubt that, although from the perspective of employers, the reason why they do this is from their own interests, in order to better realize the sustainable development of enterprises. However, in doing so, employers are likely to put themselves in a relatively passive position.

First, according to the relevant laws, the employer has the right to know the basic information directly related to the labor contract. On this basis, the employee should truthfully explain, but the employer's right to know is limited to the basic information directly related to the labor contract, including the employee's physical condition, knowledge, skills, education, professional qualifications, work experience and so on. However, whether a worker is single or not is not within the scope of the employer's knowledge, and it is a flagrant violation of the labor law for the employer to refuse the application of a single employee.

In particular, when some companies and enterprises recruit female employees, they know that the employees they recruit are not single but flatly refuse. This kind of behavior itself violates the Law on the Protection of Women's Rights and Interests, because the Law on the Protection of Women's Rights and Interests clearly stipulates that the employer is in the recruitment process.

Second, in addition to personal basic information, enterprises are not allowed to make further inquiries or investigations, and the marriage and childbearing situation of female job seekers is not allowed as a condition for employment. If the enterprise requires female job seekers to be single and claims that this requirement is normal, then this behavior is blatantly illegal. In the long run, such enterprises do not respect the employment rights of job seekers, and it is difficult for them to get better development.

In short, it is unreasonable for enterprises to set restrictions on interviewers such as singles. This will not recruit suitable talents.
