Sexual Discrimination

Sexual discrimination can apply to the gender or sexual orientation of persons of the same sex, different or both sexes. It is against the law for an employer to discriminate against or harass an employee based on their sexual orientation. Sexual discrimination due to a person's sexual orientation or association with someone of a particular sexual orientation may include employees receiving different rates of pay in contrast to colleagues at work. The victimisation can also result in actual physical violence and other extremes forms of harassment. Discrimination may also be encountered by women in an unfair manner of recruitment, promotion, or access to certain benefits. An employer can also be made liable for sexual discrimination by an employee, for failing to prevent the employee from the act. If you have a complaint of harassment at work because of your sexual orientation, you should get in touch with a solicitor experienced in cases relating to sexual discrimination in the workplace, and that is where Legal Compare can assist you.
