On July 5, it was reported that the Weibo topic "26-year-old girl applying for Luckin was suspected of being old" was on the hot search list.
A girl posted on social media that she was asked about her age when she went to Luckin Coffee Shop for an interview, and the store manager learned that she was 26 years old and said that she was beyond their budget and needed young and energetic people, and was afraid that there would be a generation gap in conversation with her.
The girl said that before the interview, the store manager did not inform me in advance that there was an age limit, wasting my time and energy, so disrespectful, you want to recruit after 00, is it necessary to say that others are 26 years old?
It's really chilling, and I hope that Luckin Coffee can treat every job applicant fairly when recruiting, and don't judge a person by irrelevant things such as age and gender.
In this regard, the customer service of the headquarters said that the headquarters did not have a specific notice of age requirements.
Some netizens believe that for enterprises, discriminatory employment may block the truly capable labor force from the enterprise, and once the worker cannot enter the workplace smoothly, it will reduce the labor supply, resulting in labor shortage and rising labor costs.
The lawyer pointed out that, according to the regulations, if an employer discriminates against an employee without justifiable reasons based on factors such as geography and gender that are not necessarily related to the "intrinsic requirements of the work" when recruiting personnel, it constitutes employment discrimination, and if the employee's right to equal employment is infringed upon, and the people's court should support the request for the employer to bear the corresponding legal responsibility.
