Project

First surviving cancer, then surviving labour market Discrimination?

The objective of the research is to gain a deeper understanding of whether (causality), why (mediating perceptions about cancer survivors’ productivity) and when in particular (moderating candidate and employer characteristics) hiring discrimination against cancer survivors occurs. To this end, two experiments are conducted in which recruiters take hiring decisions concerning job candidates with and without a history of cancer.
