Does the Equality Act Part 5 : work
Chapter 1 employment etc Do Sections 39 to 41 apply to all existing and prospective employees? Or do those sections only apply in relation to protected characteristics. Equality Act Section 39 -------------------- The owl of Minerva spreads its wings only with the falling of the dusk.

Equality Act Section 39 Don’t really understand your question... are you asking if it means “any and all” discrimination (it doesn’t) or only discrimination concerning a protected characteristic (it does)? -------------------- Moderator
