Article 1(1)(a) of the Convention. Prohibited grounds of discrimination. Legislation. The Committee recalls that, following the adoption of the Act of 28 November 2006, any direct or indirect discrimination on the basis of religion or belief, disability, age, sexual orientation or real or presumed membership or non-membership of a race or ethnic group is prohibited under the Labour Code, the Act of 16 April 1979, issuing the general conditions of service of public servants and the Act of 24 December 1985, issuing the general conditions of service of local government officials. For several years, the Committee has been drawing the Government’s attention to the fact that no provision prohibits discrimination on the basis of colour, political opinion, national extraction or social origin and recalls that national legislation which defines and prohibits discrimination in employment and occupation should cover at least all the grounds enumerated in Article 1(1)(a) of the Convention. In the absence of a reply from the Government on this point, the Committee requests it to take the necessary measures to ensure that colour, political opinion, national extraction and social origin are included in the list of prohibited grounds of discrimination in the Labour Code (section L.241-1), the Act of 16 April 1979, issuing the general conditions of service of public servants (section 1bis), and the Act of 24 December 1985, issuing the general conditions of service of local government officials (section 1bis), and to provide information in this regard.

The Committee is raising other points in a request addressed directly to the Government.
