Discrimination occurs when you are treated unfairly because of a protected attribute like age, disability, sex, race, or carer's responsibilities, and it can be direct or indirect. If you experience discrimination, you can speak to your employer, get legal advice, or lodge a claim with the Fair Work Commission, Anti-Discrimination NSW, or the Australian Human Rights Commission within strict time limits.
