discriminatory policy

A discriminatory policy is a rule or practice that unfairly treats people differently based on characteristics such as race, gender, age, nationality, religion, or other personal traits. These policies can limit opportunities or impose disadvantages on certain groups, often leading to inequality and social injustice. Discriminatory policies can be intentional or unintentional, but they generally result in unfair treatment that harms individuals or communities. Recognizing and addressing such policies is important for promoting fairness, equal rights, and social cohesion.
