在立陶宛男子因歧视性的爱尔兰驾驶执照规则而拒绝其工作之后,特别安全局必须支付13 000欧元。
The HSE must pay €13,000 after denying a Lithuanian man a job over a discriminatory Irish driver’s license rule.
爱尔兰卫生局(HSE)在工作场所关系委员会裁定它歧视立陶宛国民Gediminas Gvazdauskas(Gedimas Gvazdauskas)后,必须支付13 000欧元的赔偿金,因为要求爱尔兰国家驾驶执照局(NDLS)的驾驶员声明可以发挥搬运工/司机作用。
The Irish Health Service Executive (HSE) must pay €13,000 in compensation after a Workplace Relations Committee ruled it discriminated against Gediminas Gvazdauskas, a Lithuanian national, by requiring a driver’s statement from Ireland’s National Driver Licence Service (NDLS) for a porter/driver role.
Gvazdauskas持有立陶宛有效许可证,没有驾车罪,无法提供NDLS文件,尽管满足了其他要求,包括警察检查和立陶宛当局的一封信,却被拒绝工作。
Gvazdauskas, who held a valid Lithuanian licence and had no driving offences, could not provide the NDLS document and was denied the job despite meeting other requirements, including Garda vetting and a letter from Lithuanian authorities.
虽然英国卫生健康局声称这一要求是必要的,并提供了延期,但WRC认为该政策对非爱尔兰国民的影响不成比例,并违反了1998年"就业平等法".
The WRC found the policy disproportionately affected non-Irish nationals and violated the Employment Equality Act 1998, even though the HSE claimed the requirement was necessary and offered extensions.
该委员会命令高级选举委员会审查其驾驶员招聘标准,并在六个月内向爱尔兰人权和平等委员会报告结果。
The committee ordered the HSE to review its driver recruitment criteria and report findings to the Irish Human Rights and Equality Commission within six months.
