That "Height" be added to protected characteristics of the Equality Act 2010

Additional Information

Height is currently not listed under the Protected Characteristics of the Equality Act of 2010. Height is something that an individual can do nothing about, however, companies are allowed to specify a minimum / maximum height without giving just cause.

We, the undersigned, wish for a change of law that would require employers to provide a valid reason within the law as to why they are asking for a minimum / maximum height.
