Discrimination In Employment

In today's busy and stressful world,  employers tend to make their employees' life at work as serene and tranquil as possible by creating a safe and ideal work environment. These employers master the idea that a happy (and healthy) employee is a  productive employee. On the other hand, other employers, for several different reasons, tend to look down on their employees without acknowledging any of the latter's hard work.

According to Maltese Employment and Industrial Relations Act – article 26, discriminatory treatment shall include, but not limited to:

• The engaging or selection of a person who is less qualified than a person of the opposite sex,
• Payment or employment conditions which are less favourable than those applied to an employee in the same work or work of equal value,
