Religious or belief discrimination

Delivered by John Sprack (barrister and former Employment Tribunal Judge), this recorded training session looks at direct and indirect religious or belief discrimination, harassment and victimisation under the Equality Act 2010.

The session covers:

• Which beliefs are protected - Grainger plc v Nicholson
• The Forstater case: is the belief that one’s sex is immutable protected?
• Dress codes - wearing the hijab, crucifix and other manifestations of religious belief prayer breaks and religious holidays
• The role of the Human Rights Act and the European Convention on Human Rights
• What happens when rights appear to clash: Ladele, McFarlane - the “gay cake” case
