TAFEP – TRIPARTITE ALLIANCE FOR FAIR & PROGRESSIVE EMPLOYMENT PRACTICES

After consulting the tripartite partners, the government has decided to adopt Labour MPs’ suggestions for anti-discrimination laws that carry penalties.

Some of the TAFEP guidelines will be enshrined in law, to give them more teeth, and expand the range of actions that can be taken.

Philosophically, writing TAFEP guidelines into the law is a major move. It signals that discrimination at workplaces will not be tolerated. But in practice, workplace disputes should still be resolved informally and amicably, if at all possible. The legal redress should be a last recourse.
