Discrimination and employment in intercultural environment / Lucia Petríková. chapter 3. -- Discrimination in human resource management and external knowledge in multinational environment is the main topic of this chapter. In this part, we mention equality which is not the only a criterion for the execution of rights and their legal protection (legal equality) but equality also needs to be seen as a basic human right. Equality as an important employment principle is tightly connected with the principle of equal treatment in industrial relations. Principle of equal treatment does not only mean equal treatment of people in the same situations but application of this basic human right also expresses request for the public authorities to treat authorized bearers of human rights differently in different situations. We also aimed at clarifying the terms, such as discrimination, direct discrimination and indirect discrimination in this chapter. An important part of this chapter is the brief description of the characteristics of individual reasons for discrimination (sex and gender, sexual orientation – identity, racial and ethnic reasons, religion, faith and world view, disability, age). We also deal with global economics, scanning global learning opportunities, globalization of culture and global technology in this section. After that, there is also the characteristic of convergence principle and divergence principle and the general characteristic of the International Labour Organization with its history, main bodies and their impact on the intercultural environment.
