Event description :
Age discrimination was formally outlawed by legislation that came into force in 2006. This session will provide an update on the legal provisions that deal with age discrimination in the workplace following 2 years of legal developments in this difficult area. We will also provide some practical pointers to avoid the many pitfalls that arise. Our speakers will cover:
- What is prohibited by the legislation?
- What cases have been reported on age discrimination?
- What can employers do to minimise the risk of claims arising?
- What are the potential consequences of claims in this area?
- How does compulsory retirement fit within this legal regime?
- What practical tips are there in this area?
This seminar will provide practical guidance on dealing with a growing area of employment law and practice. The session is a must for all employers given the impact and potential cost of such claims.
