Abstract:
This study examined the effect of workplace discrimination and employment practice in Delta State Judiciary. A 12-item validated structured questionnaire served as the research instrument to 102, eighty to junior staff and fifty-six to non-staff in Delta State Judiciary. The findings suggest that when workers perceive workplace discrimination in their organization, their commitment and engagement are affected. The researcher therefore concluded that Gender discrimination is now universally recognized as unethical, every country strives towards gender equality by ensuring that both men and women enjoy equal opportunities in such important fields as education, politics, economy and commerce. Hence, the researcher recommends that government should adopt gender mainstreaming as a strategy for women development. Gender mainstreaming is the process of ensuring that gender is taken into account in all government policies, programmes and interventions. It involves bringing into account the experiences, concerns, knowledge and interests of women and men to bear on programming in all areas and at all levels.
