Introduction Recent work by Sherif Sherif cited in Miller and McGlashan Nicols (1953) has shown that with the regard to group norms theory (GNT) it can be explained “how individuals acquire belief systems and ideologies that support the prescription of prejudice” (Miller et el., 2008). This theory argues the differences of behaviour of people who is in-group and out-group. Being a member of an in-group gives rise to discrimination of people in out-group. The current research is the clear example of discrimination of people with body art(out-group), especially in employment. Moreover, as Ligos cited in Miller et el (2001) claimed that the discrimination associated with tattoos in the workplace also occur among those who also have body art.
With registries individuals have been discovered to have abused an adult or elder during a background check for job inquiries. When this type of information surfaces it is crucial to disclose it to protect further victims of abuse. Also stated, “Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services have a National Background Check Program. The program's purpose is to identify efficient, effective, and economical procedures for conducting background checks on all prospective direct patient access employees of long-term care facilities and providers”. What is ageism?
UNIT 203: Principles of diversity, equality and inclusion in adult social care 1 Understand the importance of equality and inclusion 1.1- Diversity: Diversity literally means difference. Diversity recognises that though people have things in common with each other, they are also different and unique in many ways. Diversity is about recognising and valuing those differences. Diversity therefore consists of visible and non-visible factors, which include personal characteristics such as background, culture, personality and work-style in addition to the characteristics that are protected under discrimination legislation in terms of race, disability, gender, religion and belief, sexual orientation and age. By recognising and understanding our individual differences and embracing them, and moving beyond simple tolerance, we can create a productive environment in which everybody feels valued.

Art therapy: Treating the LGBTQ population The lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and/or questioning (LGBTQ) clients have unique and diverse needs that need to be considered before and during art therapy. Research has found that LGBTQ clients are at increased risk for major depression, anxiety disorder, eating disorders, panic disorder, alcohol and drug dependency, and poor self-esteem when compared to the general population (Pelton-Sweet & Sherry, 2008). This paper examines the core competencies required before treating this population, addresses specific art activities that can be done in group and/or individual therapy, and looks at treatment possibilities surrounding the coming out process. LGBTQ people that are the recipients of art therapy services can face mental, emotional, and physical strain from both inside and outside the mental health system.
* Discrimination Is the unequal treatment of individuals, usually on the basis of gender, race, age, religion or disability. * Stereotyping Is when you categorise someone for example a male works in a hairdresser so he is gay. * Prejudice Pre-judging something or someone before knowing the facts or the person. Q2. Explain how discrimination can affect individuals There are many way discrimination can have an effect on individuals.
Sexuality has been evoked in multiple ways in the study of gender inequality. It may be considered as a possible motivating cause for inequality, examined for the ways it reflects or is affected by gender inequality, or incorporated as a peculiar tension between women and men that mediates both the causes and effects of gender inequality. Essentially everyone recognizes sexuality as critically important to gender inequality. (Sociology. About) Why have the roles of men and woman changed in today’s society?

Sexual Harassment Introduction The United Nation has defined sexual harassment as requests for sexual favors, unwanted sexual advances, and other physical or verbal conducts that are sexual in nature. Unwelcomed behavior is the critical word that defines sexual harassment. Unwelcomed behavior in regard to sexual harassment does not imply “voluntary” as victims of sexual harassment may agree to certain actions and actively take part in them even when they are offensive and objected by the victim (United Nations, 2002). Sexual harassment is term that encompasses many things, which include unwanted sexual looks or gesture; actual or attempted rape or sexual assault; unwanted pressure for sexual favors; unwanted deliberate pinching, cornering, leaning over or unsolicited telephone calls, letters, and material of sexual nature (United Nations, 2002).
The author of this journal (Reitman 1997), Oonagh Reitman informs us about the aims of his writing, which is to discuss about the similarities between two critiques of international human rights by cultural relativists and feminists perspectives. Then He define the meanings of both perspectives briefly, where the cultural relativist critiques believes that human rights are simply by virtue of being human and whose substance, form and interpretation are not subject to variations in culture (Donnelly 1989). Meanwhile the feminist argues that, in practice, those who hold human rights are men and not women, and that gender equality, and freedom from discrimination for women, is given a low priority in the international arena. With this paper, Reitman
In some states sexual orientation is an additional protected class, and recently the United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit in Hively v. Ivy Tech Community College of Indiana, held that “discrimination based on sexual orientation is a form of sex discrimination and thus prohibited by Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964” (Hively, 2017). To avoid real or perceived discrimination in performance evaluation, an organization must create a performance evaluation system that is fair and objective. The Equal Pay Act of 1963 (EPA) is another example of federal protection against discrimination in performance evaluation. The EPA requires that men and women who work together in the same workplace should be given “equal pay for equal work” (Equal Pay Act (1963)). In the textbook, Alexander and Hartman cite statistics from a 2010 Harris Poll which found that “7 in 10 Americans say women often do not receive the same pay as men for doing exactly the same job” (Alexander and Hartman, 2014, p. 345).
