UK Equality Act

The UK Equality Act 2010 is a law that protects people from discrimination and unfair treatment because of specific characteristics, called "protected traits," such as age, disability, gender, race, religion, or sexual orientation. It promotes equal opportunities in areas like employment, education, and services, ensuring everyone has fair access and is treated with respect. The law also requires organizations to make reasonable adjustments to accommodate individuals with disabilities and prevent harassment or victimization based on protected traits. Overall, it aims to create a fair and inclusive society where diversity is valued and protected.
