Language skills [VIDEO]

A person should not be treated less favourably in the employment relationship because of his or her language skills. For example, one should not require a higher level of language skills than necessary when you are employed. It is also not allowed to look for native speakers of Estonian for some jobs.

If you did not find an answer to your concern, you may contact the Estonian Commissioner for Gender Equality and Equal Treatment in a free format by sending an email to avaldus@volinik.ee. When contacting the Commissioner, the identity of the person shall not be disclosed and, upon request, anonymity shall be guaranteed. You can also contact both the labour dispute committee and the Chancellor of Justice for conciliation procedure.
