Abasetyhini basagwetywa ngokobunzima babo kwindawo yokusebenzela

Kwilizwe elifanelekileyo, bonke abantu baya kuvavanywa emsebenzini kuphela ngomgangatho womsebenzi wabo. Ngelishwa, akunjalo ukuba zinjani izinto. Ngelixa zininzi iindlela abantu abanokugwetywa ngazo ngokwenkangeleko yabo, enye yeendlela ezixhalabisayo zokukhetha indawo emsebenzini kukucalucalula ubunzima. I-bias ngokuchasene nabo babonwa njengabatyebe kakhulu okanye batyebe ixesha elide kwaye kubhalwe kakuhle. Uphononongo olubanzi lwe2001 olupapashwe kwi Ukutyeba ngokugqithisileyo bafumanise ukuba abantu abatyebe kakhulu bafumana ucalucalulo kungekuko ingqesho kuphela, kodwa nakwezempilo nakwimfundo, abanokuthi bafumane umgangatho ophantsi wokhathalelo kunye nokunikwa ingqalelo kuzo zombini ezi ndawo. Olunye uphononongo kwi Ijenali yeHlabathi yokutyeba yafumanisa ukuba ucalulo lokutyeba lunxulunyaniswa nemivuzo ephantsi yokuqala emsebenzini kunye nokuncipha kwempumelelo yomsebenzi oqikelelweyo kunye nokubanakho ubunkokeli. Oku kuye kwaba yingxaki kangangamashumi eminyaka. Ngelishwa, kubonakala ngathi ayiphucuki.

Kuphononongo olupapashwe kwiveki ephelileyo, iqela labaphandi liqwalasele indawo engaphandwanga kakhulu yokucalucalulwa kobunzima: abantu abawela kwinqanaba eliphezulu le-BMI "esempilweni" (isalathiso sobunzima bomzimba). Olu phononongo luhlukile kunolo lwangaphambili kuba lubonakalise ukuba abantu abasempilweni ngokwenyani (ngokwee-BMIs zabo) babecalulwa ngenxa yenkangeleko yabo xa kuthelekiswa naleyo inee-BMIs ezisezantsi nakuluhlu olusempilweni. Kuvavanyo, abantu abangama-120 baboniswa imifanekiso yabagqatswa abangamadoda nabasetyhini, bonke abo bawela kwindawo ethile kuluhlu lweBMI olusempilweni. Bacelwe ukuba babeke umgangatho wokufaneleka komgqatswa ngamnye kwindima ejonge kubathengi njengabahlobo bezentengiso kunye nabalindisi, kunye neendima ezijongana nabathengi ezinje ngomncedisi wesitokhwe kunye nompheki. Abantu baxelelwe ukuba bonke abagqatswa bafaneleke ngokulinganayo kwizikhundla.

Iziphumo zophononongo zazingazinzi: Abantu bakhetha imifanekiso yabaviwa abane-BMIs esezantsi kwimisebenzi ejongene nabathengi ngokude. Ayilunganga. (I-FYI, eyona BMI isempilweni ityebe kakhulu, ngokophononongo olutsha.)

Umphengululi ophambili uDennis Nickson, uprofesa kulawulo lwabasebenzi eStrathclyde Business School, kwiDyunivesithi yaseStrathclyde eGlasgow, eScotland, uphawula ukuba ngelixa ucalucalulo lokutyeba luzinzile, ucalucalulo kwiqela labantu abakwimeko entle esempilweni kwaziwa phambi kolu phononongo. "Umsebenzi wethu wandisa ukuqonda kwethu ngalo mbandela ngokuqaqambisa ukuba nokuba ukonyuka okuthe chu komgangatho wobunzima kunokuba nefuthe kangakanani kwimarike yabasebenzi yokuqonda ubunzima," utshilo.

Ayothusi into yokuba abantu basetyhini babecalulwa kakhulu kunamadoda. "Ndicinga ukuba isizathu sokuba abafazi bajongane necala elikhulu kunamadoda kukuba kukho ukulindela uluntu malunga nokuba abafazi bafanele bajonge njani, ngoko ke bajongene nocalucalulo olukhulu malunga nokumila komzimba kunye nobukhulu," kusho uNickson. "Lo mbandela ubhengezwe ngokukodwa kwindawo yokuqhagamshelana nabathengi, esiyiqwalasele kwinqaku."

Kodwa sinokuyilungisa njani? UNickson ugxininisa ukuba uxanduva lotshintsho alukho kwabo batyebe kakhulu, kodwa kuluntu luphela. "Imibutho kufuneka ithathe uxanduva lokuveza imifanekiso emihle yabasebenzi 'abanobunzima' njengabanolwazi nabanolwazi. Ukongeza, abaphathi kufuneka bafundiswe ukuthathela ingqalelo ukucalulwa kobunzima ekuqeshweni nakwezinye iziphumo zengqesho." Ukwabonisa ukuba abantu abanocalucalulo abanako, phofu, ukuba bangaluqapheli ucalucalulo lwabo. Ngeso sizathu, kubalulekile ukubandakanya ubunzima kwiinkqubo ezifana noqeqesho lweyantlukwano ukuze kufundiswe abaphathi kunye nabaqeshwa ngalo mba.

Inyathelo lokuqala lokulungisa umba wocalucalulo oluxhaphakileyo njengalo kukudala ulwazi, nto leyo ngokungathandabuzekiyo olu phando luyanceda ukuyenza. Njengoko intshukumo eyakhayo yomzimba ikhula, sinethemba lokuba abantu kuwo onke amacandelo-hayi nje ingqesho-baya kuqala ukunyanga konke abantu ngokufanelekileyo ngaphandle kokubhekisa kubungakanani babo.
