Summary of case
When Ilnaz, a 22-year-old female originally from Iran, did well in her job interview, the manager of CompuSoft, an Australian company that specialises in the design of CD ROMs, offered her the job immediately. Ilnaz, who needed this job, was so happy that she accepted the offer straightaway. When she reported to work the beginning of the following week, she found that she has to share the office with a male colleague. Apparently her manager placed her with Jason because both of them will be doing similar tasks in nature. The manager thought that this way they would both help, and learn from, each other. He also thought, that given that they also both will be working together in a joint project that the company had just acquired, it was important that they both have access to each other during the day. Ilnaz, however, was not happy with this arrangement as it was against her religion and culture to be in complete isolation with an unrelated man. Her husband was also upset and threatened to stop her from going to work when he learned about this arrangement. The following day, Ilnaz goes immediately to her manager and asks him what should she do.
