A new survey looks at how many workers have experienced discrimination in the workplace based on their weight and other factors.
Six in 10 overweight American workers have experienced weight discrimination, according to a recent survey by ResumeBuilder.com.
“It’s a very small part of the population that doesn't feel some sort of being behind the eight ball in the process for whatever reason,” said Stacie Haller, the chief career adviser at Resume Builder who helped facilitate the survey. She has been a job search coach and recruiter in the past.“Those who identified themselves as being overweight or obese thought that that impacted their career at a much higher percentage than women who felt that way,” she said.
