Menurut Statistik Kaji Selidik Ini, Graduan India & Melayu Paling Susah Nak Dapat Kerja. Betul Ke?

Selepas empat, lima, enam tahun berhempas pulas demi segulung Ijazah dan bergelar graduan untuk menjual kelayakan masing-masing kepada syarikat lain demi masa depan yang cerah, ternyata tak semudah yang disangkakan.

Pengambilan pekerja dalam mana-mana syarikat mempunyai prosedur tersendiri. Temuduga yang membuahkan hasil pasti diimpikan oleh semua yang bergelar graduan.

Isu yang sering diperkatakan adalah lambakan dalam kalangan graduan meningkat. Mengapa? Adakah graduan berkelayakan pointer paling tinggi menjadi pilihan sesebuah syarikat? Atau rupa paras? Atau warna kulit?

Lain pula ceritanya apabila satu thread di laman Twitter telah tular berkenaan pengambilan kerja sektor swasta terhadap graduan berlainan bangsa iaitu Melayu, Cina dan India dikatakan terdapat unsur racist atau diskriminasi melalui pembuktian statistik kaji selidik yang dijalankan oleh Centre for Governance and Political Studies yang bertajuk 'A Study on Racial Bias For Entry Level Jobs in Malaysia'. 

Ikuti thread penuh di bawah.

Dibuktikan juga dalam kajian sebelum ini diskriminasi dalam sektor swasta yang diterbitkan oleh Dr Muhammad and Hwok Lee Aun

There have been a few studies before this in regards to discrimination in the private sector, most notably the ones published by Dr Muhammad and Hwok Lee Aun. So we decided to extend this study, to see whether it is still evident in 2019. pic.twitter.com/3c5Qytrs53

Mereka membuat kaji selidik dengan menghantar lebih 3000 resume kepada syarikat

We sent 3829 job applications to over 500 jobs. For every job vacancy, we sent these seven candidates:

NurSakinah, a Malay female
Zulaikha, a Malay female
Kavita, an Indian female
Nicola, a Chinese female
Thivakar, an Indian male
Gabriel Liew, a Chinese male
Saddiq, a Malay male pic.twitter.com/72COQYJu1D

Ada 7 resume, 7 pemohon, sama kelayakan, sama CGPA, sama pengelasan Ijazah, sama universiti, semua boleh komunikasi 3 bahasa

In the resumés of these seven candidates, they all had the same degree, they all obtained the same CGPA, a Second Class Upper, they all graduated from a local private university, they all had a three month internship and they all can communicate in English, Malay and Mandarin. pic.twitter.com/9ZQUIN4HEW

Gambar passport dalam resume semuanya adalah guna orang yang sama, yang membezakan adalah edit solekan, nama, warna kulit

The passport pics to the resumés were taken from the same person. The candidates all had the same physical features but were applied makeup to look the ethnicity of their resumé. Literally, the only difference between these seven resumés was their names & skin color. pic.twitter.com/NpvGOCw3px

Calon berbangsa Cina (lelaki dan perempuan) mendapat banyak panggilan berbanding calon bangsa Melayu dan India

The results are tragic.

Both our male and female Chinese candidates obtained more job callbacks than their Malay and Indian peers combined.

Of over 500 jobs,

Nicola received 240 callbacks
Gabriel Liew received 179
Saddiq= 42
whilst Thivakar has a dismal callback of 20 pic.twitter.com/D00yB5ZwB3

Hasil kajian : Nicola (calon berbangsa Cina) hanya memohon sebanyak 2 pekerjaan sahaja untuk dapat 1 panggilan dari syarikat. Manakala, Sakinah (calon Melayu) perlu memohon 13 pekerjaan untuk dapat 1 panggilan dari mana-mana syarikat.

Nicola only needs to apply to 2 jobs for her to get 1 callback

Nur Sakinah, the Malay girl with hijab, needs to apply to 13 jobs to get one callback.

Devastatingly, Thivakar, our Indian male candidate, needs to apply to 27 jobs to get just one callback for interview. pic.twitter.com/i5gbihXbhq

Dalam resume, calon meletakkan kebolehan berbahasa Mandarin sebagai "sederhana". Tetapi, Nicola dan Gabriel (keduanya adalah berbangsa Cina) mendominasi panggilan telefon dari syarikat yang memerlukan Chinese Speaker.

All our candidates listed Mandarin as "intermediate" in their resumés. Yet Nicola and Gabriel dominated in callbacks from Mandarin-required companies. Nicola got a 55% callback rate whilst Thivakar got 9%.

"Mandarin requirement" is just a smokescreen to hire Chinese candidates. pic.twitter.com/NtJuzp711s

Calon Melayu tidak bertudung mendapat lebih banyak panggilan kerja (13%) berbanding Calon Melayu yang memakai tudung(9.14). 

A Malay girl without a hijab gets more callbacks than a Malay girl who wears a hijab. Zulaikha (who did not wear a hijab) obtained a 13% callback rate whilst Nur Sakinah obtained a 9.14% callback rate.

Again, the two resumés were the same person and had the same qualifications pic.twitter.com/Fy4udFa1EG
