Action Plan to Eliminate Workplace Discrimination Research Project

This research project investigates an action plan to eliminate workplace discrimination, fulfilling a unit requirement focused on independent inquiry and critical analysis. The student conducted both primary and secondary research, employing questionnaires for primary data collection from 12 respondents. Secondary research revealed the prevalence of workplace discrimination as a significant issue, contrasting with the initial hypothesis. A comparison of primary and secondary data revealed differences, with primary data aligning with the hypothesis and secondary data suggesting lower discrimination levels. The project evaluates the impact of demographic variables on research outcomes and assesses how the research might have differed if conducted years ago, especially with the use of technology. The conclusion highlights the difference in sample size between primary and secondary research, and the conflicting results obtained from both research methodologies. The project aims to provide insights into the complexities of workplace discrimination and action plan development.

TASK 4
Action plan to eliminate workplace
discrimination

Research project title
The present study highlights action plan which
can eliminate discrimination at workplace.
Hypothesis: To identify the degree of
discrimination within workplace

What I did to plan the research project
 To carry out secondary research with the help
of sources such as books, journals and online
articles on various factors associated with
workplace distribution
 To frame a well structured questionnaire and
carry primary market research in order to collect
primary data.

Research Methodology used
A scholar can use variety of methodologies to conduct
a study and achieve its aim. The methodologies used
in this study are mentioned below as:
 Qualitative research
 Primary and secondary research

How I carried out primary research
 I have conducted primary research with the help of
a well structured questionnaire which was handed
over to 12 respondents.
 It can be stated that the sample size for this study
was small yet effective as they have provided
useful and reliable information regrading
workplace discrimination

Secondary research findings
 From the findings which I have gathered with the
help of secondary sources, it has been identified
that workplace discrimination is a serious issues
This means that the my hypothesis has not been
satisfied as the findings of secondary research has
highlighted the fact that workplace discrimination is
very low which is just opposite of my hypothesis

Comparison of primary and secondary
data collected
 After the analysis of both secondary and primary data
collected, it can be stated that there is wide differences
between the two.
 The primary data collected explained that workplace
discrimination is high which has satisfied my hypothesis.
On the other hand, secondary data analysis my
hypothesis is not meet as it reflects discrimination at
workplace is low.

Evaluate how results of a similar piece of
research would have generated years ago
 It can be stated that the in terms of demographics variables if
same number of males and females then the respond would have
been more fair and accurate. In the present study, there are
were more female respondents as compared to males. This has
affected results of this study to a great extent.
 I the same research would have been generated years ago, then
technology would have assisted this research. There are
adequate information available which reflects high level of
discrimination at workplace.

Conclusion
 It can be concluded that in the secondary data
appropriate sample size was considered compared to
the primary research in which the sample size was 12.
 It is concluded that my hypothesis was not achieved
with secondary data as it demonstrate low
discrimination at workplace. On the other side of this
primary research has attained the hypothesis which I
have developed.
