Is there really a tax break for hiring ethnic minorities?

Question

I have heard both ways, but am unable to find any proof either way. I wonder if companies that "advertise" their hiring of a diverse background of employees have any hidden agenda to their practices. Maybe by making ethnic minorities more apt to apply for thier jobs working for lower wages...

Answer 1

Yes, you can get tax breaks, for example, for hiring the disabled or veterans.

Do you really get a tax break just on the basis of the person being a minority - no.
