Equality body calls for discrimination laws to be expanded to include the ground of socio-economic status and the ground of criminal conviction
The Irish Human Rights and Equality Commission (IHREC) this month published a second set of recommendations to government as part of ongoing engagement with the Review of the Equality Acts, including the Equal Status Acts 2000-2018 and the Employment Equality Acts 1998-2015. The recommendations arise from an IHREC Advisory Committee on the future of equality law, a committee in which Ibec participated and represented employers' interests. Ibec has submitted its significant concerns to IHREC and Minister O'Gorman's department as to the proposed recommendations.
