Systemic discrimination
Systemic discrimination refers to the set of procedures, habits and forms of organization within a structure which, often unintentionally, produce unfavorable results for minority groups compared to the majority population. It manifests itself in the organization's policies, programs, employment practices and services. This type of discrimination is rooted in the day-to-day running of institutions and is the result of established organizational systems, structures and cultures. It can affect areas such as employment, education, health, housing and public services.
