ABSTRACT
The purpose of this article is to look at the issue of equal employment opportunity in the HR
recruitment and selection process. Because both HR managers and applicants are involved in these
processes, this research is conducted separately between them. As a result, it will be decided
whether both parties agree on the existence of this notion in the processes mentioned. Equal
employment opportunities are critical for any business and are a major factor in identifying genuine
personnel. As a result, the study examines if prejudices exist in the recruiting and selection process,
such as discrimination based on national and social origin, gender and sexual orientation, age,
political affiliation, and so on. The legislation in India and its impact on the process of establishing
equal opportunities will be studied as an essential aspect of this notion.
INTRODUCTION
Equal rights for all citizens, regardless of gender, race, color, national and social origin, political and
religious beliefs, property and social standing, is a fundamental concept protected by each country's
constitution. It is critical to understand what needs to be eliminated and how this might be
accomplished in order to eradicate prejudice and establish workplace equality.
Employees in the company have the right to be treated fairly in all aspects of their work. Some
larger corporations start a new trend in which they promote equal employment chances by
recognizing the value of preserving an Equal Opportunity culture as a competitive advantage. It is a
job offered by a corporation that treats all employees equally and fairly in the hiring process,
regardless of race, gender, religion, nationality, disability, or political affiliation. It is a need that all
persons be treated equally, without artificial obstacles, prejudices, or preferences, unless certain
'differences' can be explicitly justified.

It is undeniable that equal employment opportunity legislation exists, but the question is whether it
is consistently followed in real life. The argument is whether there are truly equal possibilities for
employment, given that the sex or age of the candidate is often included in job adverts. When it
comes to equal employment chances in the process of recruiting and selecting personnel, even the
legal provision of employing a set number of minorities in India is up for debate.
