Член 21 - Недискриминация
Параграф 1 се основава на член 13 от Договора за ЕО, заменен с член 19 от Договора за функционирането на Европейския съюз, на член 14 от ЕКПЧ, както и на член 11 от Конвенцията за правата на човека и биомедицината, що се отнася до генетичното наследство. Доколкото този параграф съвпада с член 14 от ЕКПЧ, той се прилага съгласно него. Няма противоречие нито несъответствие между параграф 1 и член 19 от Договора за функционирането на Европейския съюз, който има различно приложно поле и предмет: член 19 предоставя на Съюза компетентност да приема законодателни актове, включително да хармонизира законовите и подзаконовите разпоредби на държавите-членки с цел борба с определени форми на дискриминация, изброени изчерпателно в този член. Това законодателство може да обхване действието на органите на държава-членка (както и отношенията между физическите лица) във всяка област, попадаща в областите на компетентност на Съюза. За разлика от него, член 21, параграф 1 не предоставя никаква компетентност за приемане на антидискриминационни закони в тези области на действие на държавите-членки или на физическите лица, нито постановява широкообхватна забрана на дискриминацията в тези сфери. Той засяга всъщност само дискриминацията, която е дело на институциите и органите на Съюза при упражняването на предоставените им от Договорите области на компетентност, и на държавите-членки, единствено когато прилагат правото на Съюза. Следователно параграф 1 не изменя обхвата на компетентност, предоставен по член 19, нито тълкуването на този член. Параграф 2 съответства на член 18, параграф 1 от Договора за функционирането на Европейския съюз, и следва да се прилага в съответствие с него.

Preamble: ‘(7) Equality between women and men is one of the Union's founding values. Unequal treatment between women and men violates fundamental rights. Moreover, the promotion of equality between women and men also contributes to achieving the objectives of the Europe 2020 Strategy. The objective of promoting equality between women and men should be implemented in a mutually reinforcing manner with other Union or Member States activities that have the same objective, in particular with those referred to in the European Pact for gender equality for the period 2011 to 2020. (8) Discrimination on the ground of sex includes, in line with the case-law of the Court of Justice of the European Union, discrimination arising from gender reassignment. In the implementation of the Programme, regard should also be had to developments in Union law and in the case-law of the Court of Justice of the European Union with regard to further gender related aspects, including gender identity. (9) The right to be treated with dignity in the workplace and society in general is an expression of the founding values of the Union and coordinated action is necessary to permit targeted activities in relation to the employment market. Therefore, actions in the area of gender equality and non-discrimination should include promoting equality between women and men and combating discrimination in the workplace and the employment market.‘
‘24. Article 5 of the Convention enshrines the obligation of States parties to prohibit and eliminate racial discrimination and to guarantee the right of everyone, without distinction as to race, colour, or national or ethnic origin, to equality before the law, notably in the enjoyment of civil, political, economic, social and cultural rights, including the rights to freedom of thought, conscience and religion, freedom of opinion and expression, and freedom of peaceful assembly and association.‘ ‘25. The Committee considers that the expression of ideas and opinions made in the context of academic debates, political engagement or similar activity, and without incitement to hatred, contempt, violence or discrimination, should be regarded as legitimate exercises of the right to freedom of expression, even when such ideas are controversial.‘ ‘26. In addition to its inclusion in article 5, freedom of opinion and expression is recognized as a fundamental right in a broad range of international instruments, including the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which affirm that everyone has the right to hold opinions and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas of all kinds through any media and regardless of frontiers. The right to freedom of expression is not unlimited but carries with it special duties and responsibilities. It may therefore be subject to certain restrictions, but only if they are provided by law and are necessary for protection of the rights or reputations of others and for the protection of national security or of public order, or of public health or morals. Freedom of expression should not aim at the destruction of the rights and freedoms of others, including the right to equality and non-discrimination.‘

Urges States to take measures to reduce informal work for women, with a focus on female participation in economic life and by increasing women’s economic opportunities, particularly in formal employment, in order to promote gender equality; [...]‘
