Employment Tests

Many employers opt to test candidates before hiring to make sure that they are capable of performing the duties of their position. While tests can help determine which applicants are more qualified for the job, they may also put certain groups of people at a disadvantage for employment. In order to provide equality opportunities for applicants, most tests are administered by a company’s human resources department.

If you or someone you know has been asked illegal test questions prior to employment, and you believe you have been discriminated against based on your answers, you may be able to pursue legal action.

Creating and Administering Tests

If an employer decides to administer tests for pre-employment screening purposes, they will typically consult the human resources department for help. Most tests are created by psychologists in HR to make sure that the tests do not ask any illegal questions, and that they do not disrespect or offend applicants.

If you have been subjected to a test that asks you illegal or discriminatory questions, or offends you in any way, you may be able to pursue legal action against the employer. Contact an experienced employment lawyer today to learn more about your options.
