Lessons 26 Making a Complaint Learning Intentions: That students will learn how someone can make a complaint in case of discrimination That students will learn from actual cases how discrimination can take place and what redress is available Resources Access to the Internet for the video clips on how to make a complaint Copies of the Case studies for your jurisdiction printed off from the accompanying DVD. You will need 5/6 copies of each case (see activity instructions) If someone feels that they have been discriminated against because of their membership of one of the groups protected under the legislation, they can make a complaint against the employer or service provider concerned. For Northern Ireland, information is available on the Equality Commission website at http://www.equalityni. org/sections/default.asp?cms=Your%20Rights_ Taking%20a%20discrimination%20case%20-%20a%20 guide&cmsid=2_688&id=688&secid=2 For Ireland, information is available on the Equality Tribunal website in the form of a video at http://www.equalitytribunal. ie/About-Us/Video/ Information is also available on the Equality Authority website at www.equality.ie/ The case studies on the accompanying DVD illustrate some of the ways in which various people have been discriminated against and have successfully taken cases under the equality and anti-discrimination legislation. There are five cases for each jurisdiction. Activity Show the students the video clip relevant to your jurisdiction and check that they broadly understand the process and the options available to people who have a complaint. Then divide the students into five groups and give each group copies of one of the Case Studies. Ask them to discuss the cases and agree what their decision would be if they were making a decision on them. Then ask each group to briefly describe their case to the class and say what they have decided. Then either read out or give each group the actual decision that was made. Where this differed from the students’ decision, the class could discuss the differences and the probable reasons for them. They may wish to look up further details of certain cases on the relevant websites as a homework activity. Conclude the lesson with a walking debate on whether they believe the legislation is effective in protecting people from discrimination or not. 100 sECTION 4 Equality and the Law
