Answer 2

Answer:

1. the unjust or prejudicial treatment of different categories of people, especially on the grounds of race, age, or sex

Explanation:

Discrimination means treating a person unfairly because of who they are or because they possess certain characteristics. If you have been treated differently from other people only because of who you are or because you possess certain characters.

Discrimination that occurs because of one or more of the above characteristics is unlawful under the Equality Act. Considering every person has at least some of these characteristics such as age, race or gender, the Act protects every person from being discriminated against.

• The Equality Act 2010 specifies several situations where you are protected from discrimination. Some of these situations and settings include but are not limited to the following:

• As an employee in any kind of workplace including offices, factories or construction sites amongst others

• As a student or staff in schools, colleges and other educational institutions

• When looking for a place or property to rent or buy a property from estate agents or housing associations

• As a client of a business or organisation that provides services or goods such as banks, shops and utility companies

• When using transport services such as buses, taxis or trains

• As a patient or resident at any healthcare setting including hospitals, private clinics and nursing homes

• When interacting with public bodies such as local authorities and government departments
