Best Answer

the government introducing and policing the equal opportunities act. This enforced a minimum minority employment statistic throughout workforces, and also in specific job roles. Companies were then forced to advertise in media that would be specific to the natured target audience.

Be it to increase a female workforce, you would have to advertise in a media read or watched by predominantly females.

Finally the government then requested that companies keep track of the current cross section of employees, stating creed, colour, sex as catagories in order to have a reflection of the cross section
