Yes. That is clear discrimination.

The fact that you are not allowed to question the merits of DEI (Diversity, Equity, Inclusion) tells you all you need to know.

Obiously illegal. Ask HR to get it documented.

If it said “whites only”, what would you think? That would be my answer.

“Affirmative Action” is clearly un-Constitutional under the 14th Amendment and Alfred Blumrosen knew it when he wrote the first regulations in his newly created EEOC.

How about we start promoting equal representation in the blue-collar trades: carpentry, electrical, plumbing, mechanics.

In contrast, we also demand equal representation in fields like nursing, teaching, child care.

you could anonymously report it to I don’t know the dept of labor? But instead why not send it to somebody like Fox news?

Might want to look at whistleblower laws and then consider contacting the state.

My experience with HR tells me that you will just get in trouble if you ask them about something like this. They are not there for you. They are there to impose Diversity on you.

The only defense we reasonably have is to choose who we do business with. I talk to people all the time that pretty much fully agree with me politically and morally. They agree what these woke corporations are doing is wrong and destroying this country. Yet they continue to business with them. I work very hard not to do business with places like target, Amazon, McDonnalds, AT&T, Netlix, NFL, NBA and on and on. But these people I talk to have not changed their behavior at all with these businesses. The reason is that it is convenient to do business with them. That is why we are, and will, loose. Hardly anyone is willing to make even the smallest sacrifice to stand up for America and American values. it’s pretty depressing really.

You might as well break some other laws too. :-)

Ask as many people involved what the reasoning is behind it. Send requests in writing, save copies of those. Log in days requests were made and when responses were made, and obviously keep those. At least they’ll wonder that if something is amiss, they might get their asses caught in legal entanglements.

If you want to get HR is deep shit, send that to a labor attorney.

Do you work for Wind River Systems? Look at their pie charts (scroll down).

https://www.windriver.com/company/careers/diversity

They’re opening declaring that their goal is to reduce the percentage of white men - specifically. How do you do that unless you’re not hiring and also firing WHITE MEN?

I find it astonishing they’re so brazen about it. If you replaced “white men” with any other demographic you’d be sued endlessly.

illegal as hell. If I were you, I would tell the boss or management team in person & turn in my resignation. I would work for such a deceitful company. You should simply give the example of putting the advertisement in the paper with the wording of this last column in bold! I am sure they would blanch at that! Stupid pricks.

Ask these supervisors , in writing, to confirm this is their intent, you are ordered to do so,, and to indemnify you against any future criminal or civil prosecution

The last part, legally speaking, does nothing, but it forces them to be absolutely clear. You probably won’t get a response

The key to choosing to hire employees of only one gender lies in the ability to prove that the employees’ gender is crucial to their job performance. This is known as a Bona Fide Occupational Qualification, or BFOQ. It can be incredibly difficult for an employer to use the BFOQ exception to justify only hiring employees that meet a certain characteristic. An example of where this is a valid requirement are cases where churches only hiring members of their religion for clergy positions. Another one is going to be challenged before you know it as companies like to hire female models to show female clothing.

Companies can cite any characteristic protected by Title VII of the Civil Rights Act except race as a bona fide occupational qualification. There was a big push for minority hiring in California with Southern California Edison in the early 70’s when I left the military for the first time. I tested high and they wanted me for hydro electrics, but couldn’t hire me due to their low numbers of minority employees. So in that case, race was a factor.
