工作中的年龄歧视 英语作文

Age discrimination is now seen as a more widespread problem in the City than

sex discrimination, a survey of more than 1,600 finance sector workers has found.

While more than one-third of City employees said their employer was “very

committed” to gender diversity, less than a quarter felt the company was similarly

committed to fighting age discrimination.

The research also confirmed that problems over discrimination and lack of

commitment to diversity were most likely to arise in areas such as trading and

sales rather than within the middle or back-office functions.

“The City is getting far better at supporting and developing female staff,”

said Mark Cameron, chief operating officer at Astbury Marsden, a financial services

recruiter, which carried out the survey.

He added: “The huge effort that London’s financial services sector has made

to broaden its workforce is clearly reflected in positive feedback we have had from

employees.”

But while sex discrimination was on the decrease, negative attitudes towards

co-workers on the basis of age and a lack of commitment to age diversity was seen

as wider problem.

“We aren’t saying that the negative consequences of age discrimination are

bigger than other forms of discrimination, just that employees see it as more

prevalent. They also see age diversity as something employers are not particularly

focused on,” said Mr Cameron.

The default retirement age (DFA), under which employers could force workers

to retire at 65, was phased out in 2011. But Mr Cameron said that, as with racial

and gender diversity, it often took years for attitudes to change, and this seemed

to be the case with age discrimination.

discrimination: Treatment or consideration based on class or category rather

than individual merit; partiality or prejudice:歧视,差别待遇:根据阶级而不是根据个

人的优点来加以对待和考虑的;偏心或偏见:

discrimination有“区别”的意思,但更多地表示判断、见识方面的差别,也表示待

遇上的差别,因此通常用discrimination表示“歧视”。同样有“区别”意思的distinction

侧重于细节上的区别而difference则更普通,可以指几乎任何区别。
