The brochures aim to assist people to understand their rights, identify situations where their rights are not being met and know what actions they can take
The series of five Know Your Rights brochures are entitled:
- About Us
- Age Discrimination
- Disability Discrimination
- Race Discrimination
- Sex Discrimination
The About Us brochure explains what the Commission does – our aims, our functions and our place in the world of human rights advocacy.
The other four look at the types of discrimination that fall under each heading, provide an overview of the Commission’s complaints process, and how to use it, and provide other useful contacts and information.
Though they provide an overview of discrimination and rights in a general sense, each brochure also has a particular focus on employment.
These brochures are available in a DL size hard copy or download in HTML, pdf and Word formats from the Commission’s website.
