Woman-only job advert sparks debate on gendered job adverts

A female business owner has hit back over allegations of sexism, after she advertised for a female only role – Lincolnshire Live reports.

Quecia Riani, Owner of café Delicias Do Rei in Spalding, faced online criticism after a job advert was spotted, which some candidates claim was discriminatory.

The ad read: "We need woman to work in restaurant part-time. Contact here."

Users of the Facebook page ‘Spotted Spalding’ argued that the advert was biased against male applicants, with one user writing: “Quecia Riani you don't ‘need’ a woman. A man can carry out the same tasks, you mean you want some eye candy to attract more custom?"
