37、scrimination is not easy.“If youve got the grades, the skills and the determination, this government will ensure you can succeed,” declared the British prime minister, on October 26th, as he introduced plans to tackle discrimination in the workplace. Ten big employers in the public and private secto
38、rsincluding the civil service, HSBC and Deloittehave agreed to start recruiting(招募) on a “nameblind” basis in Britain; others may also follow suit. In such schemes, those drawing_up shortlists of applicants cannot see their names, with the aim of reducing racial and sexual bias. But do they work?Sev
39、eral countries have experimented with nameblind applications. In 2010 Germanys AntiDiscrimination Agency, an advisory body, sponsored a voluntary scheme to get businesses to try it. In France a law passed in 2006 made the anonymising of applicants CVs compulsory for firms of over 50 employees. But t
40、he government was slow in laying down the conditions for how the law would operate, and only started performing it last year.In Sweden and the Netherlands there have been some trials. Discrimination against job applicants based on their names is well documented, particularly among ethnic minorities.
41、 An experiment in Germany found that candidates with Germansounding names were 14% more likely to be called for an interview than candidates with Turkish ones. A review of various studies, by the Institute for the Study of Labour(IZA), a German outfit, found that anonymised job applications boost th

A Swedish study found that it led to more ethnicminority people being hired.However, the results from other trials are less clear. A second Swedish experiment found that only women, not immigrants, were boosted by anonymous recrui
43、tment. According to the IZA, experiments in the Netherlands showed no increase in the likelihood of ethnicminority candidates being offered a job if their CVs were seen anonymously, suggesting that discrimination had slid in at the interview stage. Ensuring that a candidate is completely anonymous i
44、s also tricky.A 2012 French study found that foreignborn candidates and those from poor districts were less likely to be called for interview when applications were anonymised. Its authors suggested that recruiters may have used other indicators, such as knowledge of Arabic, to identify race. In pla
45、ces suffering from religious tension, such as Northern Ireland, the name of a school can reveal a candidates faith, while a few years missing on a CV may suggest maternity leave(产假), and thus that the candidate is female. Going nameblind when shortlisting candidates may be a sensible start, but it i
46、s likely to be just a small step towards ending hiring bias.()58. What can we learn from the passage?A. In France, the government started the anonymised recruitment in 2006. B. In Germany, chances of ethnicminority nameblind candidates being interviewed are slighter.C. In the Netherlands, the anonymous recruitment is more of a trick than an effective practice.D.
