You
may have an entitlement to compensation or some type of
action if you have been discriminated against or have been
denied your human rights.
What
circumstances are required for a complaint?
You
may have a complaint if you have been discriminated against
on the grounds of sex, sexuality, marital status, pregnancy,
race, impairment or age. Such discrimination may be unlawful
if it occurs in the workplace, by educational institutions,
in receiving goods or services or in accommodation.
What
are you entitled to claim for?
The
range of remedies available is quite broad and can include
getting your job back, getting an apology, receiving the
goods or services that you were denied, changing the policies
and procedures of the discriminating party and obtaining
compensation. We will discuss possible entitlements with
you when you make your complaint.
How
long will your complaint take?
The
length of your complaint will depend upon the time taken
to collect evidence and the time spent by the Commission
in trying to resolve your dispute.
When
should you seek legal advice?
You
should get legal advice as soon as possible as there are
time limits for making complaints.
