It is illegal for someone to treat you differently because of sexual orientation or who you are in a relationship with or te gender to which you are attracted
You cannot be treated differently because of your sex; even as a one-off action caused by a rule or policy. The Equality Act dictates that you cannot be discriminated against because of your sex or perceived.
If you are a part of an organisation with a clear structure and belief system you are protected against discrimination as part of The Equality Act; this even covers non-belief or lack of belief.
Being a different race should have no impact on your employment, and you should never feel humiliated, offended or degraded because of your race, colour or nationality.
Having a baby does not and should not justify any kind of direct or indirect discrimination and good practise for employers is to promote family friendly workplaces and improving access to advice and information
Your marital status should not have any bearing or impact on decisions that are made on your behalf in terms of employment unless it is appropriate and necessary and this can be proven.
You have a right to live your life as whatever gender you identify as, transitioned or not, and the inclusion of this characteristic protects you from discrimination in all forms.
If you have a disability, you cannot be put at a disadvantage because of it. Whether a physical or hidden disability, you have a right to be respected and never discriminated against.
There should be no situation in which you would be treated differently from anyone else because of your age, or if you are associated with a specific age group or perceived group.
