Are married and childless women discriminated against in recruitment?

Hello, although I hate to admit it, this shortcoming does exist. I have a female classmate who submitted several resumes, all of which were crossed out by many big companies because it said that she was married and had no children.

After making a few phone calls, I got the phone number that should be the personnel department. I briefly asked you some reasons for leaving your last company, your work content and your personal situation. If you are an older woman, unmarried and childless, and have plans to get married and have children in two or three years, it is recommended not to vote for this job, because people will not use you 100% and will not even give you an interview. I'll tell you on the phone, record your situation, then submit it to the headquarters and contact you then. I don't know what is wrong with this society, but getting married and having children must mean stability. Unmarried and childless must be impetuous? Who has never been married and wants to get married? Now the social pressure is so great. What's wrong with marrying late and having children late? Why do women embarrass women? Depressed.

You think you are just married, not necessarily whether you have children, but in HR's eyes, "married and childless" means that you will be pregnant and have children and take maternity leave soon after you join the job.

For them, the employment cost is too high, so don't use Que Ning.

It is rare for married and childless women to be discriminated against in recruitment. Mommy searched for "married and childless looking for a job" on a social platform, and many HR clearly stated that "married and childless are not considered for the time being".

It has been expressly stipulated that it is not allowed to ask about the marriage and childbirth of women during the interview, but in fact, asking about the marriage and childbirth of female candidates is still a reserved item in the current HR recruitment process.

Once you are "married and childless", the interview is basically cold.

Why is it difficult for married childless women to find jobs?

At present, enterprises are not very friendly to married childless women, and there are also reasons:

First of all, the cost of employing people is high. Once a married and childless woman is pregnant, the enterprise can not only dismiss her casually, but also pay her salary during maternity leave, and arrange someone to take over her work, which causes a great burden to the enterprise.

Secondly, the psychological shadow caused by malicious maternity leave. Some married and childless women promised not to have children for the time being when they were recruited, but they got pregnant at the speed of light as soon as they joined the job, and then left the job quickly after maternity leave.

Although it is the freedom of employees to have children, this malicious act of rubbing maternity leave has also left a psychological shadow on many employers, so married childless women are directly listed in the "blacklist" during recruitment to prevent risks.

Most employers are responsible for their own profits and losses, and profit-seeking is the essence of enterprises. Considering the interests, it is the most cost-effective decision not to recruit married and childless women.

How to achieve a win-win situation?

In fact, in the workplace, not only married and childless women, but also married and fertile women are discriminated against.

Previously, an HR circle was circulated on the Internet, which talked about several labels on women in the workplace:

Married without children = huge expenses

Because of workplace discrimination, many women are now afraid to get married and have children, and the fertility rate has dropped. The consequences of the decline in fertility rate caused by discrimination against women will eventually be transmitted to enterprises and affect their development. For example, enterprises have to pay higher costs to recruit employees. ...

Today, with the increasing rate of women's participation in social labor, women have held up half the sky in the workplace, and many women are eager to achieve something in their careers. The degree of hard work is not to lose to men.

Sun Li's agent gave birth in the early hours of the morning and started work at 9: 00 a.m., asking Sun Li about his work process. Perhaps enterprises can accept female job seekers with a more open and inclusive attitude.
