Instances where we can use ILS
There is no definition of discrimination in the
labor proc.or the constitution
The labor proc and the FDRE constituionsimply state the grounds of discrimination not
the definition of discrimination(look at art
14(1)(f))
But convention 111 which Ethiopia has ratified
provides the definition of discrimination
together with the grounds of discrimination.
![Page 22: solomon engda Discrimination](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022021214/577d2f131a28ab4e1eb0ba45/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
8/7/2019 solomon engda Discrimination
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/solomon-engda-discrimination 22/74
Article 1 of conv.111 (a) defines discrimination
as any distinction, exclusion or preference
made on the basis of race, color, sex, religion,
political opinion, national extraction or social
origin, which has the effect of nullifying or
impairing equality of opportunity or
treatment in employment or occupation;
![Page 23: solomon engda Discrimination](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022021214/577d2f131a28ab4e1eb0ba45/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
8/7/2019 solomon engda Discrimination
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/solomon-engda-discrimination 23/74
Distinction, exclusion or preference
These terms refer to the same phenomenon: a
person, persons or group is/are
being treated differently than others. Such differential treatment can exist in or
result from a variety of sources including
laws, administrative regulations, policies,practices, the functioning of institutions or
social pattern
![Page 24: solomon engda Discrimination](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022021214/577d2f131a28ab4e1eb0ba45/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
8/7/2019 solomon engda Discrimination
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/solomon-engda-discrimination 24/74
Negative effect on equality of
opportunity and treatment
Differential treatment is discriminatory if it
produces negative effects on the
enjoyment of equality of opportunity andtreatment of person(s) or groups
concerned.
![Page 25: solomon engda Discrimination](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022021214/577d2f131a28ab4e1eb0ba45/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
8/7/2019 solomon engda Discrimination
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/solomon-engda-discrimination 25/74
Equality of opportunity and
treatment includes two aspects:(1) the notion of equal treatment which requires
that all persons should be treated on an equal
footing; and
(2) the notion of equal opportunity which
requires that everyone must be offered
comparable means and opportunities. The
notion of equal opportunity suggests thateverybody should be brought to an equal level
to access work opportunities
![Page 26: solomon engda Discrimination](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022021214/577d2f131a28ab4e1eb0ba45/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
8/7/2019 solomon engda Discrimination
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/solomon-engda-discrimination 26/74
With the focus on effect, it is irrelevant
whether the discrimination was intentionalor not.
By emphasizing the effect on equality of
opportunity and treatment, the Conventionaims at the elimination of both direct and
indirect discrimination
![Page 27: solomon engda Discrimination](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022021214/577d2f131a28ab4e1eb0ba45/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
8/7/2019 solomon engda Discrimination
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/solomon-engda-discrimination 27/74
There are direct and indirect discriminations
But the labor law does not specify this issue
![Page 28: solomon engda Discrimination](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022021214/577d2f131a28ab4e1eb0ba45/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
8/7/2019 solomon engda Discrimination
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/solomon-engda-discrimination 28/74
Direct and indirect discrimination
Direct discrimination refers to rules, policies
or practices that exclude or
disadvantage certain individuals because theybelong to a particular group or because they
have certain characteristics (example:
indigenous origin, sex, religion, etc.). This form
is generally easier to identify.
![Page 29: solomon engda Discrimination](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022021214/577d2f131a28ab4e1eb0ba45/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/solomon-engda-discrimination 29/74
Example
An enterprise hires indigenous and non-
indigenous workers to perform plantation
work as casual workers. However, indigenous
workers are not hired under regular labor
contracts, under which better wages are paid
and benefits and allowances are available.
![Page 30: solomon engda Discrimination](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022021214/577d2f131a28ab4e1eb0ba45/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
8/7/2019 solomon engda Discrimination
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/solomon-engda-discrimination 30/74
Indirect discrimination
is often hidden, more subtle and therefore
more difficult to identify. It occurs when
apparently neutral measures (rules, polices or
practices) have a disproportionately adverse
impact on one particular group. Even well-
intended measures may be discriminatory.
![Page 31: solomon engda Discrimination](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022021214/577d2f131a28ab4e1eb0ba45/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
8/7/2019 solomon engda Discrimination
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/solomon-engda-discrimination 31/74
Examples
A national vocational training scheme that
applies to all parts of the population, including
indigenous peoples, does not take intoaccount the cultural differences between
indigenous and non-indigenous groups( e. g.
different languages, different ways to relate to
the land, different cultural traditions, etc).
![Page 32: solomon engda Discrimination](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022021214/577d2f131a28ab4e1eb0ba45/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
8/7/2019 solomon engda Discrimination
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/solomon-engda-discrimination 32/74
T his leads to low participation of indigenous
peoples and as a result to fewer opportunities
for indigenous peoples to access employment
or to exercise the occupations of their choice,
including traditional occupations.
T he laws, regulations and policies on rural
development do not acknowledge, or may even discourage, traditional livelihood
activities that indigenous groups wish to
pursue.
![Page 33: solomon engda Discrimination](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022021214/577d2f131a28ab4e1eb0ba45/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
8/7/2019 solomon engda Discrimination
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/solomon-engda-discrimination 33/74
As a result, the programmes and facilities to
promote rural development may undermine
the possibility of indigenous peoples pursuing
their traditional occupations and livelihood
strategies.
![Page 34: solomon engda Discrimination](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022021214/577d2f131a28ab4e1eb0ba45/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
8/7/2019 solomon engda Discrimination
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/solomon-engda-discrimination 34/74
Not all measures taken that have a negative
effect on indigenous peoples are per se
discriminatory. Such measures may bepermitted if they are necessary and
proportionate to achieve a legitimate
objective. Whether a specific measure stands
this test has to be decided on a case-by-casebasis, depending on the specific
circumstances.
![Page 35: solomon engda Discrimination](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022021214/577d2f131a28ab4e1eb0ba45/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
8/7/2019 solomon engda Discrimination
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/solomon-engda-discrimination 35/74
in order for a specific measure not to qualify as indirect
discrimination, it would have to be shown that the measures
objective takes account of the rights and dignity of indigenous
peoples, including the right to be consulted on matters that
concern them.
The need to avoid and eliminate indirect discrimination
requires decision-makers to take into account the differences
between persons and groups when designing and
implementing laws, polices and other measures, in order toavoid discriminatory outcomes.

Examples
Indigenous agricultural workers are paid less for the
same work than their non-indigenous
peers.
While indigenous workers are not provided with
appropriate health protection equipment (e.g.
to handle hazardous chemicals), such equipment is
provided to non-indigenous supervisors.

What are special measures?
Under the Convention, special measures can be
taken to protect certain specific groups in order to
meet their particular needs. Such measures, taken to
respond to the protective needs of the groupsconcerned, are not deemed to be discriminatory.
Convention No. 111 specifically refers to special
measures provided for in ILO
Conventions and Recommendations, such as
Conventions Nos. 107 and 169 that specifically
address the situation of indigenous and tribal
peoples. On this basis,
![Page 41: solomon engda Discrimination](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022021214/577d2f131a28ab4e1eb0ba45/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)

What are the States obligations
under the Convention?
Article 2 of Convention No. 111 provides that the States must
adopt and implement a national policy to promote equality of
opportunity and treatment in employment and occupation,
with a view to eliminating discrimination. Such a policy should
not only include legal provisions prohibiting discrimination,
but also proactive measures to achieve equality in
practice. Where groups such as indigenous and tribal peoples,
who are protected by the Convention, face inequalities in
employment and occupation, the situation should becorrected.
![Page 43: solomon engda Discrimination](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022021214/577d2f131a28ab4e1eb0ba45/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/solomon-engda-discrimination 43/74
In order to identify situations that may involve
discrimination as defined by Convention No. 111,
it is necessary to examine carefully the facts that
are thought to constitute discrimination. Afterthe facts have been identified, they need to be
linked to the elements making up the definition
of discrimination
If all elements can be identified, discrimination in
employment and occupation may have occurred.

Checklist 1: Identifying discriminatory laws,
policies and practices
1. Determine what constitutes the distinction,
exclusion or preference?
Identify the person(s) or groups that face
differential treatment.
