s 6 Discrimination by way of victimisation
(1) A person ( “the discriminator”) discriminates against another person ( “the person victimised”) in any circumstances relevant for the purposes of any provision of this Order if he treats the person victimised less favourably than in those circumstances he treats or would treat other persons, and does so by reason that the person victimised has— (a) brought proceedings against the discriminator or any other person under this Order or the Equal Pay Act or Articles 62 to 65 of the Pensions (Northern Ireland) Order 1995 , or (b) given evidence or information in connection with proceedings brought by any person against the discriminator or any other person under this Order or the Equal Pay Act or Articles 62 to 65 of the Pensions (Northern Ireland) Order 1995 , or (c) otherwise done anything under or by reference to this Order or the Equal Pay Act or Articles 62 to 65 of the Pensions (Northern Ireland) Order 1995 in relation to the discriminator or any other person, or (d) alleged that the discriminator or any other person has committed an act which (whether or not the allegation so states) would amount to a contravention of this Order or give rise to a claim under the Equal Pay Act or under Articles 62 to 65 of the Pensions (Northern Ireland) Order 1995 , or by reason that the discriminator knows the person victimised intends to do any of those things, or suspects the person victimised has done, or intends to do, any of them. (2) Paragraph (1) does not apply to treatment of a person by reason of any allegation made by him if the allegation was false and not made in good faith. (3) For the purposes of paragraph (1), a provision of Part III or IV framed with reference to discrimination against women shall be treated as applying equally to the treatment of men and for that purpose shall have effect with such modifications as are requisite.
