I agree with ward’s opinion, creating laws isn’t the only solution against racial discrimination at work. The major aim is to change the line of thought of people who have a bad representation of people with another skin colour. That is why it’s important to trace the real cause of the racist attack (for example: fear or a negative experience). Therefore it’s important to distinguish facts and opinions in a conversation.
The first thing you should do is starting up a debate instead of a discussion because you will achieve more if you remain calm. Secondly, try to convince the other person that you are not a thief or a something else that he accused you off. As a last resort, find a mediator (like a trade union) who will try to solve your problem.
I think that you can’t solve racism at work by creating more laws. However, we can reduce racial discrimination by talking to each other in a calm way and eliminate all the prejudices. Maybe trade union can facilitate this process.
