International Workplace Discrimination Laws
International workplace discrimination laws aim to ensure fair treatment of employees regardless of personal characteristics such as race, gender, age, religion, disability, or sexual orientation. These laws vary by country but generally prohibit unfair practices in hiring, promotion, and termination. International bodies, like the United Nations, promote standards, encouraging nations to implement laws protecting workers' rights. Violations can lead to legal consequences for employers and contribute to a hostile work environment. Overall, these laws strive to foster equality, diversity, and respect within the workplace on a global scale.
