Discrimination
Employers can be found liable for a wide variety of discrimination. That includes discrimination on the grounds of a persons sex, disability, sexuality, nationality, age or religion amongst others.
Employers can be responsible for the actions of their employees. Individual employees can be personally liable for their own actions too.
The duty not to discriminate applies at all stages of employment, from job advertisements through to recruitment and promotion.
We can work with you and your HR Team to raise awareness of the problem areas and to train managers as to how to deal with these difficult issues.
We can help with:
- Preparing Equal Opportunity Policies which cover all the different potential issues
- Reviewing all your procedures and policies to ensure they comply with the law
- Advising you on how to deal with discrimination grievances
- Representing you in Employment Tribunal cases
We produce a regular Employment & HR newsletter called Know-How: Employment Law which is packed with useful information about latest developments in the world of Employment. Click here to be added to this or any of our mailing lists.
