Equality Act 2010: This legislation prohibits discrimination, harassment, and victimisation on the grounds of age, disability, gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief, and sex. Employers must ensure that they do not discriminate against any employee or potential employee throughout the TUPE process.
