Can I legally advertise that I only employ a certain ethnicity?
|
I own a landscaping business in a small conservative, 90+% white area. I advertise in the local paper and was wondering if I can legally write something about who I have working for me. This is not an area that would appreciate "certain types" of people at their home and I thought it could boost business to set their minds at ease.

Way to advertise yourself to ppl that can get you canned. If you don't know this thats pretty sad. It's kind of funny how EVERYONE knows the answer to this but the person asking. I asked my 6 yr old cousin, and she said it's illegal! hmmmm |

Well Quizzard, I can tell you a law in the US, I don't know about Canada...
This is the textbook example of discrimination. You cannot advertise a job and say "White's only"... It's against the law in the US. |

If you advertise, have individuals fill out applications, and so on, you can not discriminate against any "protected classes" of individuals.
If you approach people on your own and say "I am hiring, will you work for me," then you can ask whomever you wish. You can hand pick individuals for your own private business - if you are a sole proprietor.
I am not sure of the other types of business entities.

No experience needed, Whites only.
You would be getting so many calls from pissed off people of ALL COLORS. Why don`t you tell your clients that you hire people with the best experience in the field. If you ask me, people who are not white Work Harder then most white people I know. Wow, no wonder there is so much hatred and anger in America. |
