Victimisation
A
s 27 Equality Act 2010:
A person (A) victimises another person (B) if A subjects B to a detriment because
(a) B does a protected act, or
(b) A believes that B has done, or may do, a protected act.
A protected act is any of the following:
* bringing proceedings under the Act;
* giving evidence or information in proceedings brought under the Act;
* doing anything which is related to the provisions of the Act;
* making an allegation that another person has done something in breach of
the Act.
The victim does not need to have a protected characteristic in order to receive protection from
victimisation under the Act.
