An employer introduced a referral-based hiring program where current employees received bonuses for referring candidates who were hired. Supervisors also occasionally made biased jokes about applicants with certain accents during team meetings. Over one year, the workforce became less diverse in departments where referrals dominated hiring. Researchers referenced social reproduction theory, suggesting that advantages can be transmitted through networks, and distinguished individual discrimination (biased interpersonal actions) from institutional discrimination (organizational practices that systematically shape access).
Which example best illustrates institutional discrimination in this scenario?
