Discrimination (Gender)
Any direct or indirect unequal treatment based on sex, including marital status, family situation, or pregnancy, in employment relationships.
Definition
Under the GEA, gender discrimination encompasses any form of unequal treatment, whether explicit (direct) or through seemingly neutral practices that disproportionately disadvantage one sex (indirect). This prohibition applies comprehensively across all aspects of employment, from hiring and task allocation to remuneration, training, promotion, and dismissal, ensuring fair treatment throughout an individual's career.
