I *just* had this one myself ... I don't know how official it is, but this version seems to be the most popular

*sorry* -- I didn't read your term closely. My translation is for the "Allgemeines Gleich*behandlungs*gesetz". I'm not yet convinced that they aren't the same, also based on the fact that the "-stellung" version gets 215 times fewer hits ...
