Equality Commission for Northern Ireland

About

Based in Shaftesbury Square, Belfast, we are responsible for implementing the law in Northern Ireland on fair employment and unlawful discrimination in the areas of gender and equal pay, race, sexual orientation, disability and age. The equality laws apply to employers and service providers of all sizes and in both public and private sectors.

Our Advice and Compliance section is there to help employers and service providers comply with the equality laws, and we have a good deal of expertise employers can draw on to safeguard themselves, their staff and their customers. Free and confidential support and advice is available from our dedicated employer advice line on 028 9089 0888 or email edenquiries@equalityni.org

Our legal team is there to advise people who believe they have experienced discrimination and in some cases to support them in taking their case to court or tribunal.

We work towards eliminating discrimination, we promote equality of opportunity and encourage good equality practice. We promote positive/affirmative action and good relations between people of different racial groups, different religious beliefs and different political opinions. We keep the law under review and have an important role in law and policy formulation.
