Per quanto ne so, in Inghilterra ci sono leggi che garantiscono la ‘equality and diversity’, in modo da eliminare qualsiasi tipo di discriminazione, molestia, vittimizzazione.
Per esempio se guardate su wikipedia, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equality_and_diversity_(United_Kingdom), c’e’ questa spiegazione:
‘Equality and diversity is a term used in the United Kingdom to define and champion equality, diversity and human rights as defining values of society. It promotes equality of opportunity for all, giving every individual the chance to achieve their potential, free from prejudice and discrimination.
UK legislation requires public authorities to promote equality in everything that they do, also making sure that other organisations meet their legal duties to promote equality while also doing so themselves.
In the UK there are certain legal requirements under existing legislation to promote equality in the areas of disability, gender and race. These are often collectively referred to as the general duties to promote equality.
As the independent advocate for equality and human rights in Britain, a Commission of Equality and Human Rights (EHRC) exists that aims to reduce inequality, eliminate discrimination, strengthen good relations between people and promote and protect human rights. EHRC has a duty to challenge prejudice and disadvantage and promote the importance of human rights, enforcing equality lawson age, disability, gender, gender reassignment, race, religion or belief and sexual orientation and encourage compliance with the Human Rights Act.’
OGNI PERSONA E’ UGUALE.
Per esempio, un datore di lavoro, non deve fare nessuna differenza fra: razza, religione o credenza, eta’, sesso, orientamento sessuale, disabilita’, etc. E se fa differenza, il datore va incontro a dei problemi.
Non sarebbe bello avere qualcosa del genere anche qui?
