The Abercrombie and Fitch Company Discussion Questions

 

In chapter 15, read the case titled Multiple Diversity Concerns at Abercrombie & Fitch (ANF) on page 423-424. Once you are reading this case post responses to the following:

  • In previous chapters we discuss the youthfulness of African Americans, Asians, and Latinos when compared to Caucasians. What are the potential ramifications of ANF’s exclusions of these groups as employees and models?
  • How may the company’s denial of discrimination, even after settling the first lawsuit, have negatively impacted the effectiveness of measures to stop discrimination in hiring and advancement at ANF?
  • As a consumer, what can you do to show your concern for ANF’s hiring and advancement practices?
