    Re: Job Discrimination

    I think the patient has all the right to choose male /female therapist , but pre-condationing of vacant job for certain sex is not fair at all .

    Yes but no point having a male employee in a clinic that does incontinence retraining to muslim women! The issue is much bigger than who is just as well trained and it is way to easy to suggest that it might be gender discrimination to consider more specific candidates. It is more about customizing your need to the publics wished. After all if we were a corporate retail store and were forced to carry every designers clothes we would ont be in business for very long.
