Abstract: |
This guide is for employers making a decision, or taking action following a decision, to dismiss a worker, make a worker redundant, tell someone they must retire because they’ve reached a particular age, or what you do after someone has stopped working for you (for example, if you are asked for a reference). The guide explains how to avoid being responsible for unlawful discrimination. It recognises that smaller and larger employers may operate with different levels of formality, but makes it clear how equality law applies to everyone, and what this means for the way you (and anyone who already works for you) must do things. This guide covers the following situations and subjects: dismissing a worker, whether that is for misconduct or because they can no longer do their job; making a worker redundant when their job is no longer needed; retiring a worker because they have reached a particular age; dealing with someone who used to work for you, for example if you are asked for a reference. This guide also contains: information on how people and organisations must avoid discrimination; information about when a person or organisation is responsible for what other people do; and advice on what to do if you believe you’ve been discriminated against. |
