Question:
Your
crew boss catches you before you start
interviewing people for a job. He says,
"Find out if those two near the door
have their 'green cards' before you waste
your time." Did you discriminate in
hiring?
Answer: First
of all, it is recommended that you wait
until you hire an individual before asking
him/her for papers to verify his/her
identity and work authorization. However, if
you ask for papers ahead of time only from
people who appear to be "foreign,"
you are discriminating on the basis of
national origin. You must treat all
applicants equally, and, when you review
their papers, you cannot insist on seeing
particular documents if they have already
shown you valid documents. Otherwise, you
are engaging in document abuse. Thus, the
answer is yes.
