The vice-president of the Bank of London was stunned to hear the union representing clerical workers was beginning a complaint of sex discrimination in beginning salaries. The vice president had considered the Bank of London was actively encouraging diversity and inclusion as a natural part of its culture; also, the senior leadership team recognized how vital diversity and inclusion were to growth and organizational effectiveness.
The vice president was wondering what the accusation of discrimination was costing the Bank of London, and how to handle understandings both in and outside of the organization. To determine this, he needed to comprehend if discrimination had in fact occurred and analyzed the subsequent variables between male and female job-holders: time, starting salary at current occupation, education and expertise.
