Definition[edit | edit source]
Racial employment segregation refers to the practice of separating individuals of different races into different job roles or occupations within a company or industry. This segregation often results in certain racial groups being disproportionately represented in lower-paying or lower-status jobs, while other racial groups are over-represented in higher-paying or higher-status positions.
This form of discrimination can have significant economic and social consequences, as it perpetuates racial inequality and limits opportunities for individuals from marginalized or underrepresented communities. Racial employment segregation is often the result of systemic racism and bias in hiring practices, as well as historical patterns of discrimination and exclusion in the workforce. Efforts to combat racial employment segregation include promoting diversity and inclusion in the workplace, implementing affirmative action policies, and addressing systemic barriers to equal opportunity in hiring and advancement.
