International Feedback: Anti-discrimination law


«The State party should ensure that legislation exists throughout its territory to protect individuals against discrimination in the private field, pursuant to articles 2 and 3 of the Covenant.»

 

«The Special Rapporteur, having noted the weakness of Swiss administrative and civil legislation regarding protection against discrimination, particularly in the areas ofhousing, employment and access to public places, considers that Swiss legislation in these areas should explicitly incorporate effective anti-discriminatory and anti-racist norms.Swiss law should also provide for legislation for the implementation of anti-racist norms, and provide for compensation or reparation.»
