It is absolutely essential to use the correct word choices when discussing gender, age, disability, ethnicity and sexual orientation. The write up also talks about the avoiding discriminatory language in the workplace that uses prejudicial and derogatory words that will offend others. Discriminatory writing can cause hurt, pain and miscommunication. The three primary areas of concern in writing a business message are discriminatory wording for gender, age and disabilities.
