Reports (4)
  • Note field is incorrect "Only in relation to the work place. All other forms are sadly not illegal, no entry in clubs, cafés, hotels, Bars. As well as declining of renting a house or apartment. Then again I don't think the government is aloud to discriminate you."
  • Newer law has been passed "it is only illegal to discriminate against them in the work place "
  • Status is not correct "Discrimintion is only legal in work context https://www.ots.at/presseaussendung/OTS_20220211_OTS0104/schutz-vor-lgbti-diskriminierung-endlich-ausweiten"
