Discrimination for many reasons
Direct discrimination can be because you’ve been treated unfavourably because of sex, age, race, sexual orientation, disability, pregnancy or maternity.
Indirect discrimination may be related to a set of circumstances being imposed that creates unfairness for one person or a group of people.
The law says …
The Equality Act 2010 is there to protect employees and an Employment Tribunal can fine your employer if they are found to have practised discrimination.
There are severe penalties if they are shown not to have taken reasonable steps to prevent discrimination.
