Abstract
In this scientific paper, the authors have described the international and
European legal framework on discrimination based on sex and gender.
The legal regulation on protection from discrimination is analysed from
several angles. The authors give special consideration to positive legal
sources analysis, with an emphasis on constitutional provisions, from the
international perspective, considering the scope of this paper. The paper
tries to examine the endeavours of the International Labour Organization to provide equal opportunities for the employment and promotion of
the employees, to prevent activities leading to unequal treatment and to
eliminate discrimination through legislative activity and politics. The authors have considered certain Conventions of International Labour Organization, which are referring to protection from discrimination based
on sex and gender. In addition, the EU legislative acts regarding this topic
are reviewed, through the analysis of the EU’s antidiscrimination law on
equal treatment of men and women, among which we accentuate Directive 76/207 from 1976 on the implementation of the principle of equal
treatment for men and women as regards access to employment, vocational training and promotion, and working conditions.
