Remove height restrictions in modelling agency's

Petition Details

Modelling agency's in general have height requirements that a male or female model should be. I want this height requirement to be abolished as it is a form of discrimination.

Additional Information

Just like any other job application and any form of work, there should be no requirements to how a person should look and it should be open to all.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

We can only accept petitions about things the Government or Parliament are directly responsible for.

Decisions about who modelling agencies hire are a matter for individual modelling agencies, not the UK Government or Parliament.

We could accept a petition calling on the Government to make height a protected characteristic in the Equality Act, so it is not legal to discriminate against people on the basis of their height.
