What does Right to Equality promote in government jobs?

Equality of opportunity

The correct answer is C: equality of opportunity. In government employment, eligible citizens should have a fair chance to compete according to lawful and relevant criteria. Selection should not be based merely on family lineage, wealth, or religion. A is wrong because public jobs are not hereditary possessions. B is wrong because money cannot be the sole basis for fair public selection. D is wrong because choosing or rejecting applicants simply because of religion is discriminatory. Equality of opportunity does not mean that every applicant must be selected or that everyone will receive the same result. It means that unfair barriers are removed and the process is open fairly to eligible people, while valid rules and constitutionally permitted measures may apply. Memory cue: equal opportunity means equal entry to a fair competition, not identical success.
