Attribution theory suggests that individuals tend to attribute causes to either internal factors (such as personal characteristics or abilities) or external factors (such as situational or environmental factors). In the case of obese workers, they may be unfairly attributed with internal causes, such as laziness or lack of discipline, instead of external causes such as genetics or workplace environment. This can lead to discrimination and negative stereotyping of obese individuals in the workplace.
