Most people have some type of hidden bias, according to the SHRM (2017). Rock & Halverson (as cited in SHRM, 2017) say that such biases often surface in the workplace when people are drawn to others who share the same hobbies or pursuits, creating an affinity bias that can affect resume-screening and career advancement. Whatever shape bias takes, it erodes productivity and engagement. In their study, Honesty and Maxfield found that 66 percent of the people they spoke with said the biased treatment they experienced had a large impact on their morale, motivation, commitment, and desire to advance in the organization.
