The impact of racism converges on workplace issues and litigation may arise in relation to an employer's behaviour and actions towards radicalized persons.

  • An employer's obligations in regards to managing a diverse workforce
  • Actions and behaviours exhibited by management that amount to damages when dealing with radicalized groups
  • Recent Court and tribunal hearings that held employers accountable for engaging in stereotyping and racial discrimination
