Workplace political discrimination is a problem that warrants scholarly attention. Recent scholarship has shown that partisans are willing to discriminate against opposing partisans in apolitical settings such as the workplace. Moreover, many countries have no legal protection against political discrimination and social norms often exacerbate it.

This article calls for scholars to explore and investigate this phenomenon in the workplace.
