Description

The Human Rights Amendment Act 2013 added sexual orientation discrimination to the list of prohibited grounds of discrimination. In addition, age discrimination was prohibited in all areas except the workplace.

The measures provide for the Human Rights Commission to mediate discrimination complaints and updated the 1981 law with more appropriate language.
