Political opinion

 

 

Political opinion includes membership of a political party; expressed political, socio-political, or moral attitudes; or civic commitment.

Workers are protected against adverse action in employment based on activities expressing their political views, but this protection does not extend to politically motivated acts of violence.[1]
