Abstract

Nowadays, although work relationships should be based on the principle of equal treatment of employees, diversity at the workplace has led to an increase in employee inequality in treatment. Despite policies to regulate work-related inequalities, it still exists and develops on the basis of personal characteristics such as gender, age, geographical area, religion, sexual orientation or some chronic disease. Workplace inequality can be defined as that distinction in favor of or against a person or thing on grounds that relate to the group, class or category of which the person or work belongs and which is reflected in wage differences between men and womenunfair practices and opportunities for injustice, especially in regard to employment of people of different ethnic origins.
