Discrimination and Equal Pay |
|
Discrimination. Equal Pay. Harassment. Bullying. Discrimination comes in many forms.
But did you know that you have extensive and comprehensive protection as an employee?
Common forms of discrimination include harassment on grounds of sex or race; the failure to make reasonable adjustments for a disabled employee; unfair selection for redundancy on grounds of sex or age; detrimental treatment of a pregnant employee or maternity leaver, to name but a few.
Our employment lawyers have extensive experience in advising and assisting upon all aspects of discrimination law, whether this involves dismissal, bullying, harassment or other detriment.
If you believe that you are being discriminated against at your place of work, then it can be a distressing and isolating time. We can offer expert advice and assistance, in a sensitive manner, to help you to seek to resolve the issue with your employer and/or if necessary, by pursuing a claim for compensation through the Employment Tribunal.
Equal pay legislation provides protection and an avenue for recompense for both men and women, where they consider they are not being paid the same as their counterpart of the opposite sex for doing the same job or similar work. The legislation is complex but still commonly breached and we have vast experience in helping individuals to overcome the often lengthy and difficult myriad of procedural hurdles in order to secure the appropriate recompense.
