French term

comme mode de preuve de la discrimination

French to English Law/Patents Law (general)
Does anybody know what "comme mode de preuve de la discrimination" is referring to.

Here is some additional context "les directives n’ont pas rendu obligatoire le recours aux statistiques comme mode de preuve de la discrimination"

Many thanks for your help:)

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

Discrimination Testing

Discrimination testing is used to detect discrimination and the existence of discriminatory behaviours often hidden behind weak excuses (the apartment is already taken, the opening has already been filled, this establishment is for members only, etc.).

As a method of Discrimination Testing
Peer comment(s):

neutral Rafael Wugalter (X) : Would statistics be a form of testing? I don't think so. The statistics would be more general data, wouldn't they? In any case, look at the text on the web page in question. You'll notice that the author uses "means of proof".
