What is this webinar about?
The Employment Equality Acts define discrimination as treating one person less favourably than another based on one or a number of nine protected characteristics including gender, race, age and disability.
This key piece of Irish employment legislation also imposes a duty on Organisations to protect Employees from acts of harassment and provides that Employers may even be found vicariously liable for the misconduct of third parties.
To support Organisations with ensuring their employment equality activity remains best practice, Linea is hosting a webinar on Thursday 7th March 2024 that will examine compliance, current trends and anti-discrimination measures including:
- An overview of Irish employment equality legislation
- Discrimination risks from day one of employment
- Direct and indirect discrimination
- Harassment claims and vicarious liability
- The reasonable steps defence
- Recent trends in discrimination claims
Join us at our upcoming webinar for answers to these key questions and more, where we share our experience of supporting Organisations.
Join 100’s of HR practitioners and keep your HR knowledge and skills up-to date.
