Sommario/riassunto

The report presents activities carried out in 2009 by the European Commission to fight discrimination on the grounds of racial or ethnic origin, religion or belief, disability, age or sexual orientation as regards to employment and occupation. It begins with a brief overview of European attitudes towards equality, then examines the latest policy development and partnerships. The brochure also looks at activities conducted to raise awareness of and better understand discrimination and equality issues, including the promotion of the business benefits of diversity. Examples are given of the implementation of equality legislation along with details of a new proposal for an anti-discrimination directive. [abstract tratto dalla pubblicazione]
