Can a nightclub refuse me entry because I am an Aboriginal person simply because they had a problem with some previous customers who were Aboriginal?
No, the club can not assume that because you are the same race as customers who caused trouble that you will also cause trouble. This is unlawful racial discrimination. back to top Do I have to get an exemption from the Tribunal if I want to specifically recruit women or indigenous people, or people with an impairment, for a position that I consider falls within the exception of “genuine occupational qualification”, or which is a “measure intended to achieve equality”? No, provided that either one, or both, of these exceptions under the Equal Opportunity Act applies to the position. An exception under the Act, however, does not prevent a person from lodging a complaint of unlawful discrimination.
