Ad for 'reliable workers' ****** as discrimination
The boss of a British recruitment firm said she was told she could not place an advertisement for ''reliable workers'' at the local Jobcenter because it discriminated against unreliable people.
Nicole Mamo, 48, wanted to post an ad for a low-paying domestic cleaner on her local Jobcentre Plus website. The text of the ad ended by stating that applicants for the post '"must be very reliable and hard-working."
But when Mamo called the Jobcentre the following day, she was told that her ad would not be displayed in the store. A Jobcentre worker claimed that the word ''reliable'' meant they could be sued for discriminating against unreliable workers.

Hardworking and reliable for little pay. That's great.
That's not EOE compliant. :tongue:
If they are an equal opportunity employer they will hire anyone.
Not just who they want. Either comply with EOE or take do not take the title.
