The Principle of Equality and Implementation of EU Anti-Discrimination Law in Italian Labor Law: Minimal Notes
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: This article aims to highlight, without claiming completeness, some links between the principle of equality and labor law. My analysis takes as its starting point the prominence of labor as a founding value of the Italian Republic and proposes some reflections on the function of labor law and issues such as equal contractual treatment for equal work and the prohibition of discrimination. The final part of the article addresses the prominence of transparency as a tool for combating discrimination, emphasizing further steps forward in achieving the effectiveness of protection because of the automatic reversal of the burden of proof in the event of any violation of rights to information.
