“…Perceived job discrimination can have a significant negative effect on subjective outcomes such as job satisfaction (Hahn and Wilkins, 2013). In the context of perception of discrimination at work (Pérez-Garín et al, 2018), individuals with physical disabilities may experience a heightened sense of inequity and discrimination in compensation in the workplace (Villanueva-Flores et al, 2015), which may negatively affect their SWB. Social support is also closely related to discrimination perception.…”

Background: Disabilities have a negative effect on mental health and individuals with such conditions are especially susceptible to mental disorders. Previous research has established that in normal population, social support is significantly correlated with subjective well-being (SWB) through mediating variables; however the internal mechanism underlying this in people with physical disability remains unclear. This study aims to examine whether self-esteem and perceived discrimination play a mediating role in the relationship between social support and SWB in a sample of people with physical disability in China.Methods: A total of 210 people with physical disability of Chinese ethnicity were recruited to complete a series of questionnaires. This included the Chinese Social Support Rating Scale (CSSRS), Rosenberg Self-esteem Scale (RSES), Disability Discrimination Perception Questionnaire (DDPQ), and the Chinese Happiness Inventory (CHI). Path analysis was implemented on the data.Results: The model showed excellent fit to data: χ2 = 2.314, p > 0.05; root-mean-square error of approximation (RMSEA) = 0.079; standardized root-mean residual (SRMR) = 0.035; comparative fit index (CFI) = 0.989; and Tucker-Lewis index (TLI) = 0.936. The results showed that self-esteem significantly mediated the relationship between social support and SWB, and perceived discrimination in people with physical disability. However, there is no mediating effect of perceived discrimination between social support and SWB.Conclusion: These findings demonstrate that self-esteem may be a critical resource in mediating the relationships between social support, SWB, and perceived discrimination in people with physical disability.

“…Flint et al, 2013;Villanueva-Flores, et al, 2017) studied injustice and discrimination in other organizations' employment, affecting the performance. Discrimination and injustice were linked to job attitudes, psychological health, stress, physical health, organizational citizenship behavior, turnover intention, and the perceived climate of diversity (Triana et al, 2015;Villanueva-Flores et al, 2015).…”

This study analyzed the perceptions of Basic Pay Scale (BPS) faculty in Pakistan's public sector universities. The aim was to question whether the BPS faculty in public sector universities faced discrimination. A quantitative and non-experimental approach was carried out to conduct this survey research. A survey tool having twenty-four items with a Likert scale of five choices ranged between strongly disagree and strongly agree was used for data collection. The data were collected from 384 sample BPS-teachers out of 35,089 BPS-teachers working in the public sector universities. The google-form was developed, and its link was shared in the Whatsapp groups for "All Pakistan Universities BPS Teachers Association" (APUBTA). The missing data were less than three percent. It was found that the BPS faculty has no service structure regarding promotions. The BPS faculty are promoted with a process by adding posts, in which the in-service teachers are put in competition with the entire country, leaving fewer chances for their promotion. In contrast, it was found that, unlike the BPS faculty, the Tenure Track System (TTS) faculty have a welldefined service structure, facing no selection board. On the other hand, the BPS faculty sent to foreign universities under the faculty project cannot apply to other universities as per university statutes. This situation is creating a sense of discrimination among the BPS faculty, affecting universities' performance. It was suggested that the HEC and the government focus on these issues until they are solved, aiming at better universities' performance.

“…Research on workplace discrimination has generally been focused on specific forms of prejudiced treatment, including: age-based and gender-based discrimination, intolerance of racial minorities and stigma attached to employees' physical aspect and/or health-related conditions (see, among others: Noon, 1993;Bowen, 2003;Villanueva-Flores et al, 2015;Graham et al, 2019). Conversely, studies intended to provide a full-fledged investigation of the occurrence of discrimination at work are sporadic.…”

Purpose Workplace discrimination negatively affects the functioning of organizations. Scholars have generally focused their attention on specific forms of prejudiced treatment at work as well as on particular groups of discriminated employees. Conversely, studies investigating the multifacetedness of this phenomenon are sporadic. The purpose of this article is to contribute to the advancement of the scientific knowledge about workplace discrimination showing a full-fledged portrait of this phenomenon in Italy. Design/methodology/approach Secondary data about self-reported experiences of workplace discrimination of a large sample of Italian people were collected and run in a logistic regression model. Five forms of discrimination at work were taken into account: prejudiced job design and work allocation; discriminatory use of promotion and awards; wage differentials; unjustified increased workload; and mismanagement of HRM instruments. Findings More than a fifth of respondents perceived at least one form of workplace discrimination. Different types of prejudiced treatment were triggered by distinctive socio-demographic and work-related factors. People who were unemployed at the moment of the interview were consistent in claiming that they suffered from all the forms of workplace discrimination. Former employees who underwent a work-family conflict were more likely to suffer from iniquitous treatment at work. Research limitations/implications The occurrence of workplace discrimination was not objectively assessed. Besides, since only Italian people were included in this study, the findings are not generalizable at the international level. Originality/value This article provides some insights to inspire policy and management interventions intended to prevent and/or curb the occurrence workplace discrimination.
