# Co-pilot: Discrimination detection

A Company Admin user needs to activate Co-pilot in the [Add-on feature center](https://support.teamtailor.com/en/articles/3825410-add-on-features) to get started.
​
Once activated, the *Discrimination detection* feature can be toggled on/off under **Settings → Recruitment → Co-pilot → Interview preparation**.

# Discriminatory questions

When adding or editing questions in Teamtailor, Co-pilot helps identify questions that may be discriminatory by detecting references to sensitive personal characteristics, including:

- Age

- Citizenship

- Color / Race

- Disability

- Ethnicity

- Family Status

- Gender Identity

- Genetic Information

- Marital Status

- Nationality

- Political Affiliation

- Pregnancy

- Religion

- Sexual Orientation

- Veteran Status

Once a question that may be considered discriminatory is created or updated under **Settings → Recruitment → Questions**, a small red *May be discriminatory* badge appears next to it. Hovering over the badge displays a tooltip explaining why the question may be considered discriminatory.

The badge simply serves as a visible reminder to review the wording, meaning it can still be saved. You can choose to keep the question as is or edit it to help ensure a fair and inclusive candidate experience.

Potentially discriminatory questions selected in the **Application form** section when editing a job will also display the badge. This helps highlight them before publishing the job.

The check is intended as a helping hand, not legal advice. Since local laws and regulations may vary, we recommend reviewing sensitive questions with your legal team.

When using our [Multiple languages](https://support.teamtailor.com/en/articles/5119291-career-sites-in-multiple-languages) feature, Co-pilot reviews all added translations to help detect potentially discriminatory questions in any language.
