Age Discrimination
This piece of legislation, which came into effect in October 2006.
Failure to follow the duty to inform and consider procedure will result in a finding of automatically unfair dismissal.
There have been several very interesting cases which highlight the danger of stereotypical assumptions about experience, age and capability. A one off comment could even lead to a significant award of damages. For help and support call Einon HR 07764 948898
