Dear Working Wise:I was asked during a recent job interview if I was married? I said “no”, but the question made me feel uncomfortable. Are employers allowed to ask such personal questions? Signed Concerned
Dear Working Wise:
Working WiseWorking WiseWorking Wise
Dear Concerned:
No, employers are not allowed to ask you if you are married. Private information like that is protected under the Alberta Human Rights Act for businesses under provin-cial jurisdiction.
Some interviewers might be unaware and may unknowingly ask inappropriate questions. You should be prepared for this so you are not caught o� guard in an interview.
Generally, any information that could be used to discriminate against you cannot be asked. Employers should only be asking you for information that is relevant to your ability to do the job.
Employers cannot ask about: • gender, marital status, family status, next of kin, marriage plans or child-care arrangements;• source of income, unless it concerns your former employment;• maiden name or name origin;• age or date of birth, but they can ask if you meet the minimum age requirement for the job;• previous address, unless it meets a business purpose acceptable under the Act;• birthplace or ancestry;• height or weight • sexual orientation;• membership in organizations unrelated to your work;• hobbies or interests that relate to race, religious beliefs, etc.• current or past health problems, Workers’ Compensation Board claims, or any absence due to stress or mental illness; • citizenship or languages not required for the job; • religious beliefs, customs and holidays that you observe; or• military service outside Canada, unless there is an acceptable business-related purpose.
Employers cannot request a photo, which could reveal factors such as race and gender, except in certain circumstances such as a modeling or entertainment position, where this may be acceptable. If an employer requires a photograph for business-related purposes, they can ask for it after an o�er of employment has been made.
Employers can ask:• if you can ful�ll work-related requirements, such as working night shifts or lifting heavy items;• for any previous names you have had if the information is needed to complete reference checks or verify your past employment or education; and• if you are legally permitted to work in Alberta.
Three ways to handle inappropriate questions:1. Write "not applicable" on the application form or politely let the employer know that the question is inappropriate; 2. Answer the question and then discuss the underlying concern that has prompted the question. “Are you married?” might be the interviewer’s way of asking if you can work late when needed; 3. Answer only the underlying concern.
However you choose to answer, be professional, diplomatic and honest.
After you are o�ered the job and accept it, the employer can ask you for information required for bene�t coverage and for employment records.
For more information, visit www.albertahumanrights.ab.ca.
If you have a question or a complaint, call:• Northern Regional O�ce at 780-427-7661 • Southern Regional O�ce at 403-297-6571
To call toll-free, dial 310-0000 and then the area code and phone number.
Do you have a work-related question?Send your questions to Working Wise, at [email protected]. Charles Strachey is a manager with Alberta Human Services. This column is provided for general information.
