origin, age, gender, sexual orientation, marital or family status, disability, workers’
compensation history, arrest record, pregnancy, social or political affiliation.

possible, understand what they did and what they didn’t do, how many staff, the
whole project or parts of the project, who did they report in to, who was there

5. Give me an example of a time when you recognised an improvement in the
workplace was needed and what you did about it
