Ethical Issues
Issue 1
Many organizations adopt a targeted recruitment
strategy. For example, Home Depot has targeted
workers 50 and above in its recruitment efforts, which
include advertising specifically in media outlets
frequented by older individuals. Other organizations
target recruitment messages at women, minorities, or
those with desired skills. Do you think targeted
recruitment systems are fair? Why or why not?
