Despite legal and administrative arrangements and increase in the sensitiveness for human rights, discriminative applications are important problems in organizations, because different applications and unfair behaviors for workers lead to negative consequences for the workers and the organization. The main discrimination areas that are stated in the literature are race, language, religion, sex, ideology and physical insufficiency etc., but these subjects would differ according to the region and sector. The aim of this study is to determine the discrimination areas in higher education Institutions in Turkey and develop a scale for measuring the level of discrimination in those areas. Discrimination areas are determined by an ethnographic study in the research. Within this context, factor analysis was applied to the related questions by Varimax approach and a reliable and valid scale was obtained. © MCB UP Limited.
