4. Discrimination
 Direct discrimination is any action that specifically excludes a
person or a group of people from a benefit or opportunity, or
significantly reduces their chances of obtaining it, because a
personal characteristic irrelevant to the situation is applied as
a barrier.
 Indirect, covert, or systemic discrimination are rules,
practices and decisions that appear neutral, but in fact
significantly reduce the chance of an individual `from
obtaining a benefit or opportunity.
 For example, an employer who says they need a person
over 180cm tall to do a job may discriminate against women
and some ethnic groups who are less likely to be this height.
