    UK opted into the social provisions of EU law. In 2000, the EU overhauled and introduced new Directives explicitly protecting people with particular sexuality, religion, belief, and age, as well as updating the protection against disability, race, and gender discrimination.

  • Public Interest Disclosure Act

  • Gender Reassignment Regulations

  • Racial Equality Directive

  • Directive establishing a general framework for equal equal treatment in employment and occupation

  • Employment Equality (Sexual Orientation) Regulations

  • Employment Equality (Religion or Belief) Regulations

  • Equal Treatment Directive

  • Employment Equality (Age) Regulations

  • Equality Act

    The act has broadly the same goals as the four major EU Equal Treatment Directives, whose provisions it mirrors and implements. However, the act also offers protection beyond the EU directives, protecting against discrimination based on a person's nationality and citizenship and also extending individuals' rights in areas of life beyond the workplace in religion or belief, disability, age, sex, sexual orientation, and gender reassignment.
