Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Discrimination in the hiring process increases the firm's costs because it limits the pool of potential candidates, potentially excluding the most qualified individuals based on irrelevant criteria such as race or gender, rather than skills or experience. This can lead to less effective and efficient workforce, increasing operational costs and reducing competitiveness.
