A tech company gives work-from-home only to employees living in certain high-income neighbourhoods. Which inference is valid?
Policy discriminates by location
The statement says only that work-from-home is granted on the basis of where an employee lives (certain high-income neighbourhoods).
Since eligibility depends on residential location rather than on work or role, it follows directly that the policy treats employees differently by location - i.e. it discriminates by location.
Nothing in the statement mentions skill, so 'High-income employees are more skilled' cannot be inferred.
Internet quality is never mentioned, so 'High-income areas have better internet' is an assumption, not an inference.
There is no information that low-income employees were offered the option and refused it.
Hence, the valid inference is that the policy discriminates by location.
