Does legislation explicitly prohibit retaliation for reporting workplace discrimination based on political affiliation?

Map reflects policies in place as of August 2016. Updates of these data are currently in progress.

The term “political affiliation” includes references to ‘political beliefs,’ ‘political convictions,’ or ‘political party affiliation.’ For the purposes of this variable, the term “political affiliation” captures all of these definitions.

No explicit protection from workplace discrimination based on political affiliation means that legislation does not explicitly prohibit political affiliation-based workplace discrimination broadly, nor specifically against discrimination in hiring, pay, promotions and/or demotions, terminations, nor harassment. This does not mean that legislation denies this guarantee.

No explicit protection from retaliatory action or dismissal means that legislation does explicitly prohibit at least one of these forms of workplace discrimination on the basis of political affiliation. However, legislation does not pair protections with an explicit prohibition of retaliatory action or dismissal for reporting workplace discrimination on the basis of political affiliation to the responsible body.

Explicit protection from retaliation means that legislation both explicitly prohibits at least one of these forms of workplace discrimination on the basis of political affiliation and prohibits retaliatory action or dismissal for reporting workplace discrimination to the responsible body.
