Complying with the changes to discrimination law can appear somewhat challenging. There is new legislation on religion or belief, and sexual orientation; the laws on race discrimination have been comprehensively amended and the legislation on sex discrimination is to be amended in 2005 and new regulations on age will be in force in 2006.

Written by leading experts in the field, this title is a comprehensive guide to discrimination law. It includes detailed explanations of all aspects of employment-related discrimination law, in clear and accessible English. It also provides practical advice on how to bring or defend a discrimination claim, and how to draft and implement an equal opportunities policy.
