Direct Discrimination

Direct discrimination is where your employer treats you less favourably than they treat others at work because of your protected characteristic.[Section 13 Equality Act 2010] . Less favourable treatment means you have been treated differently to someone else who doesn't have your protected characteristic and you’re worse off because of it.
