Record Payout - Age Discrimination Case
A senior NHS manager has won record damages from a health trust that humiliated her by rejecting her for a new job within the trust, because she was 56. She was the preferred candidate for the key role, but things changed after they realised she was just over three years from the trust’s retirement age of 60.
It is important that you base your recruitment and selection on objective,
job-related criteria, as this will put you and your business in a strong position to answer any claim of discrimination.
