Session4. Criteria and risk profile Risk of illness & death is globally higher: for old men than for old women for blue-collar than for white-collar workers for elderly persons than for young and for Afro-Americans than for WASPs Knowledge about risk profiles is necessary to calculate the cost of risk However it should not be used to exclude “bad” risks OR apply higher fees to them In social protection “bad” and “good” risks musts exist alongside each other Direct discrimination consists in applying a different law, or applying the same law differently (different treatment), to persons in the same situation, based on a certain criterion. Discrimination occurs when a person is treated less favourably for a prohibited reason. Indirect discrimination consists in applying a law in the same manner (identical treatment) to people in different situations. Indirect discrimination occurs when an arrangement, criterion or practice (a company or state rule or custom) that appears neutral (not referring to a criterion) might actually entail particular disadvantages to persons who meet one or more criteria.  Legal discrimination refers to a legal article or arrangement, i.e., appearing in a law, which is discriminatory or which could have discriminatory consequences.
