employees. Businesses, like Hooters, usually sell food, clothing, or services, but use attractive employees to appeal to customers. In May of 2010, Cassandra Smith was called into the Roseville, Michigan Hooters office for her two-year review (Gumin 1769). Her managers praised her for good customer service and reviews but, then she was told that had thirty days to improve her shirt and short size to meet Hooters standards (Gumin 1769). Smith filed a law suit against Hooters, for being allegedly discriminated

work place similar to Borgata is Hooters. Hooters is a restaurant whose waiting staff are primarily attractive young women. The women are dressed in revealing uniforms, they are a primary component of the company's image. The ladies are requested to eat a healthy diet to maintain beautiful skin. They may be asked to see a dermatologist if breakouts happen frequently. A "Hooters Girl" has to maintain high levels of exercise, grooming and a positive attitude. Hooters also wants their ladies to go for

Objectifying women is the second unethical practice at Hooter’s Inc. The Hooters Girls are being physically objectified in the workplace. The Hooter’s Girls must keep up with an objectifying appearance, as well as act a certain way when dealing with their customers (Hooters.com). They must act in a way that they are selling their personalities, to their customers. Customers are more drawn to the Hooter’s Inc. establishment for the “Hooter’s experience” than because of the food being sold at the restaurant

Bona Fide Occupational Qualification Title VII states that an employee cannot be treated differently because of sex unless sex is a bona fide occupational qualification (BFOQ). When used as a defense, bona fide occupational qualification (BFOQ) allows an organization to hire and employ individuals on the basis of the qualifications reasonably necessary to the normal operation of that particular business or enterprise. This paper will discuss the necessary steps employers must take

certain image, one the-the client of Studio 54 were expecting in these controversial parties. Their presence could be considered materialistic, perhaps even sexualized. Much like a Hooters bar where young, attractive women could be presented in a similar fashion (Brusseau, 2012). Men subsequently are not featured in Hooters just as women did not feature in Studio 54 in a similar way. One could argue that the turning of people into mere objects of desire, in both genders could be considered de-humanizing

Race, sex, and religious discrimination are arguable the three most prevalent forms of these issues still ongoing today. My assigned roundtable’s topic was on sex discrimination specifically. We were asked to focus the recent hiring practices of the Hooters restaurant chain. What was unique to this case was that men were the gender side claiming inequality in hiring practices. To accurately explain this issue we will look at the men’s rights groups’ claims, the company’s claims, and women’s rights group’s

but as material as well. Women’s bodies become broken into parts, judged by both size and shape and displayed for money, often receiving unnecessary and uninvited comments by men. Hooters is a prime example of how women are sexualized and objectified to meet the standards of heterosexual men. The women who work at Hooters are identically regulated not only by clothing but by makeup, jewelry, weight, and even personality. Everything from what these servers wear to how they act is defined by specific

This example is an appropriate for the critical analysis because it displays a situation where attractiveness is related directly to the job. The Hooters example is relevant because the uniforms female employees are required to wear proves to the requirement of an attractive appearance in the workplace.

Not only are there advertisements, there are restaurants promoting sexual advertising. For example, Hardee’s Hooters and Twin Peaks use females in provocative ways and forms of advertising. Both Hooters and Twin Peaks use short shorts and right tank tops to emphasize the sexual representation of women in their restaurant. However, just like magazines Hooters and Twin Peaks represents a certain image for teenage girls to look like the workers at the restaurant in order to get attention

1. Silicon Valley is an extremely competitive place to work. Many multi-billion dollar company’s headquarters like Google, Apple, Pinterest, and Facebook are located here. These companies want the best of the best for every position in their company and in most cases, they are able to have it. I do not think affirmative action is needed in the situation of computer coders. Affirmative action helps make all things equal or nearly equal, it promotes the least advantaged.
