Talk:Genuine Occupational Qualification

This is badly out of date. General Occupational Qualifications can also be used to discriminate against people of different races, as per section 5 of the Race Relations Act. I'm not au fait with the editorial process of Wikipedia, so I'll leave it up to someone else.

Race Relations Act 1976, Section 5, Subsection 2:

Being of a particular racial group is a genuine occupational qualification for a job only where— (a)the job involves participation in a dramatic performance or other entertainment in a capacity for which a person of that racial group is required for reasons of authenticity; or (b)the job involves participation as an artist’s or photographic model in the production of a work of art, visual image or sequence of visual images for which a person of that racial group is required for reasons of authenticity; or (c)the job involves working in a place where food or drink is (for payment or not) provided to and consumed by members of the public or a section of the public in a particular setting for which, in that job, a person of that racial group is required for reasons of authenticity; or (d)the holder of the job provides persons of that racial group with personal services promoting their welfare, and those services can most effectively be provided by a person of that racial group.
