Tell American Apparel: Stop Hiring and Firing Based on Looks
The Issue
American Apparel recently instituted a policy in which all applicants must provide full body, head to toe photos of themselves in order to be considered for positions at AA stores.
Applicants are judged and selected almost exclusively based on their looks, from their shoes and hairstyles to their race and weight.
This is blatant and obvious discrimination and it should be called out for what it is, not excused as some sort of noble quest for "good fashion sense."
Tell American Apparel to stop hiring and firing employees based on looks.
