Joint actions to end job discrimination

ABOUT 8.2 MILLION STUDENTS will graduate from college in China this year, a record high. Peoples' Daily commented on Monday:

Hundreds of thousands of students will also return to China after graduating from universities overseas. Cutthroat competition in the job market is predictable, as understandably, employers will become more picky. But some openly demonstrate strong employment discrimination, which should be addressed by the labor rights departments.

Gender discrimination is the most common. Although relevant laws and regulations strictly ban gender discrimination, some employers clearly say that they only accept male candidates, even if the jobs can be done by men or women.
