one of the serious problem for Asian workers who work in California. Some Asian
workers are fired because of their ethnicity. Some workers are paid less than other
workers who have different ethnicity. However, Asian people have a potential to
develop these companies which have ethnic diversity in the future. Various kinds of
businesses which are founded by Asian people are growing rapidly in California. If
companies want to develop their companies, they should consider to reduce racial
discrimination against Asian workers to develop their company in California in the
future.
would lost their motivation and passion toward their job, and eventually they would
quit their job to find better job which provides better working environment.
percentage of Asian tech workers grew from 39 percent in 2000 to just more than 50
percent in 2010 in north part of California (Nakaso. Asian workers now dominate
Silicon Valley tech jobs ). Asian workers are becoming dominant ethnic group in
technology industry, and it can be said that Asian workers have potential to
contribute growth of economy of California in the future.
In addition to technology companies, Asian owned company is expected to be one of
the significant economic base in California in the future. Some statistics show that
Asian companies are growing rapidly and making significant profit in California.
According to Nightingale, within inland region of California, average revenue at
Asian-owned businesses surpassed average revenue of total companies in the region
by more than $20,000 (6.6 percent) (Asian-owned firms growing faster,- University
of California). As this statistics shows, Asian companies can be considered as one of
the major businesses in California. The number of Asian-owned businesses is
growing rapidly compared to all businesses as well. Additionally, unlike other minor
ethnic groups, the share of owner of Asian business is larger than the share of
employed Asian workers in all three geographies, inland southern California,
California, and the United States (Asian-owned firms growing faster,- University
of California). Growth of Asian companies shows potential of Asian workers in
California. I consider it can be said that Asian companies are accelerating economy
of California, and it will bring demand of Asian workers in near future.
Conclusion
There are lots of Asian workers in California, and they have significant role in
economy of California. However, Asian workers are still suffering with various racial
discrimination which surrounded by them today. Workplace discrimination is one of
the difficulties they are struggling. It is not easy to reduce racial discrimination
from workplace, but companies should consider to improve these working
environment if they want to develop their company in the future. Asian workers
have potential to connect their companies with growing companies such as
technology companies and rapidly developing Asian-owned businesses which will
bring benefits to California. Reducing racial discrimination and having Asian
workers must generate profits in the future.
I live in California as an international student and will get a job in the
United States. I cant say there wont be any discrimination when I get a job, and I
would have difficulties in work place. But I consider immigrants, such as me should
understand and recognize importance of diversity and try to make diverse
environment more popular in various field. If people consider about the significance
and nobility of racial diversity, this world will be much more comfortable and
brighter for everyone.
