In the past most people do not have equal rights to choice job, for example women are not easily find a job as men, because some people think men are more smart and capable than women. In present people strongly mention the human right but discrimination still

exists, and the impacts of discrimination are serious in the workplace and in society.

The effects of discrimination in the workplace are mainly two parts. Firstly, discrimination directly deals to the unemployment rate increase. In some companies have sex discrimination they do not employ women as their staff, so these women lose their job opportunities. And others have age discrimination. Young people can not find jobs after graduation, because these companies think youth have not work experience. Secondly, discrimination results in work efficiency decline. If company discriminate women, they have not female employee, this company will lose work balance because women are more patiently and carefully, which are men’s weakness. Furthermore discriminate age is also harmful to a company. For one, senior people are full of experience and youth do not lack of energy, so these two groups are all important for a company.

The effects of discrimination in society are reflecting on race, religion, and disable discrimination. One of the main reasons cause violence is race discrimination. It is easy to find evidence from Hollywood movies. The black people always fight with white people because they were discriminated. Now in Australia, the aboriginals are discriminated. Many people do not understand their culture, so the Australian looks down on these people, but it is not equally. In addition religion discrimination can endanger the world peace. Different religion has different god and the numbers of believers are huge. Once the conflict between different religions break out, which can easily cause a world war. At last, the disables discrimination is the most important one. The society should pay more care and love to these people. However not all the people do, so the commit suicide rate of disable people is still rising.

To sum up, the discrimination can cause many problems. The government should constitute laws to avoid it. And the society should also set up some organizations or communities to help these people.
