Propaganda meets reality: none of the statements below are actually true:

"Message from the Director-General

CERN is an Equal Opportunities employer. Our Equal Opportunities policy is founded on four main pillars:

in recruitment and career development, the Organization will not discriminate against any applicant or employee on the grounds of sex, ethnic origin, disability, sexual orientation, religion, nationality or age; respect and dignity for all in the workplace; support for working parents; work-life balance." --
