| Abstract: | This article discusses whether human resource managers should be female or male, and/or would line managers be better positioned to assume this responsibility? Based on self-reported behaviors of 180 respondents, no notable difference was found between the expected and actual distributions of HR and line managers in terms of whether decisions were made on unlawful grounds. The percentage of each respondent category that asked unlawful questions varied from 1% to 36% depending upon the attribute under consideration. It is shown that remarkably less female managers admit to making decisions on the basis of unlawful questions than male managers. |
