Case Study:
Nancy is a ten year experienced registered nurse working the evening shift in the post-operative ward at Haig Memorial Medical Center. Nancy wants to finish her graduate degree requirements and the needed courses are only offered in the evenings. Nancy 's supervisor, informs the staff of an upcoming opening in the morning shift and advises them of the application deadline. Based on past experience, Nancy knows that her supervisor has already filled the position with one of her closest friends and that Nancy 's completing an application and interviewing for the position is nothing more than an exercise in futility. Nancy brings her concerns to you, the HR supervisor. She claims that her gender and sexual orientation has affected her nursing supervisor's decision and that any complaint from her to the nursing supervisor will result in retaliation or termination.
