The EEOC is supplanting a 14-year-old section in its compliance manual with a brand new set of enforcement guidance. . The new guidance covers national origin discrimination, and it has replaced the EEOC’s 2002 compliance manual section on that topic. Of course, employers already know they can’t discriminate against individuals on the basis of their national origin.

In HR we call this profiling and make no mistake, profiling is done by almost all of our hiring managers.

Company culture is as much a factor of business performance as it is of employee satisfaction at work – both are actually correlated. Despite the opportunity, business leaders still focus only few resources to the development of a strong workplace culture. Some even believe that it cannot be managed. Many organisations today actually don’t go much further than defining their core values: an exercise that loses all credibility when it stops at this stage.

But if change has to be sustained, it is the conservatives who possess the ability to lead the second and equally important part—institutionalization of change.
