Gender discrimination does not necessarily mean a company hires and fires people based on their gender. It could also play a role in promotions as well. Suppose a company only promotes women over men or vice versa, or women are expected to do menial tasks. Other examples of gender discrimination include:nA company does not provide for a woman to go on maternity leave.nAn employee is told that they are either too feminine or masculine for the office.nA person is promoted even though they have more minor qualifications than another candidate, a member of the other sex.
