The 1976 Race Relations Act makes it unlawful for an employer to discriminate against you on racial grounds. Race includes:
colour
nationality
ethnic or national origins
Under the Act, it doesn't matter if the discrimination is done on purpose or not. What counts is whether (as a result of an employer's actions) you're treated unfavourably because of your race.
The Race Relations Act protects all racial groups, regardless of their race, colour, nationality, religious beliefs, national or ethnic origins.
The laws against racial discrimination at work cover every part of employment. This includes recruitment, terms and conditions, pay and benefits, status, training, promotion and transfer opportunities, right through to redundancy and dismissal.
The law allows a job to be restricted to people of a particular racial or ethnic group where there is a 'genuine occupational requirement'. An example is where a black actor is needed for a film or television programme.
There are four main kinds of discrimination:
direct discrimination - deliberate discrimination (eg where a particular job is only open to people of a specific racial group)
indirect discrimination - working practices, provisions or criteria that disadvantage members of any group (like introducing a dress code without good reason, which might discriminate against some ethnic groups)
harassment - participating in, allowing or encouraging behaviour that offends someone or creates a hostile atmosphere (eg making racist jokes at work)
victimisation - treating someone less favourably because they've complained or been involved in a complaint about racial discrimination (eg taking disciplinary action against someone for complaining about discrimination against themselves or another person)
Sex discrimination
Under the 1975 Sex Discrimination Act it's unlawful for an employer to discriminate against you because:
of your gender
you are married
you have had, are having or intend to have, gender reassignment, this means someone, supervised by a doctor, who changes their gender Sex discrimination laws cover almost all workers (men and women) and all types of organisations in the UK. It covers:
recruitment
employment terms and conditions
pay and benefits
status
training
promotion and transfer opportunities
redundancy
dismissal
Equal pay
The 1970 Equal Pay Act makes it unlawful for employers to discriminate between men and women in terms of their pay and conditions where they are doing either:
the same or similar work
work rated as equivalent in a job evaluation study by the employer
work of equal value
