Was It Me, Or Was That Gender Discrimination? How 'Ambiguous Incidents' Impact Women
While the existence of workplace discrimination has been firmly established, individual employees often feel uncertain about classifying a negative personal experiences as such. For example, if a woman is passed up for a promotion in favour of a man, she may wonder whether her colleague's performance was simply superior to hers, and may never resolve whether or not it was discriminatory.
