Did you know that the new age discrimination in employment law is probably the biggest change in workplace anti-discrimination legislation for over a quarter of a century?

• Did you know that no limit has been set on compensation for successful age harassment claims?
• Did you know that using CVs to recruit can leave you vulnerable to age discrimination claims?
• Did you know that you can’t force someone to retire before they are 65 (except in certain circumstances)?
• Did you know that if you don’t tell someone in writing 6 months before their retirement is due, you can be vulnerable to unfair dismissal claims?
• Did you know that the way you word a job advert can result in age discrimination claims?

KEY BENEFITS

• Flexible - shift workers, people who work from home; anybody can access the learning anytime that suits them.
• Great value - training people in understanding this crucial piece of legislation and how it affects their day-to-day employment decisions and relationships, priceless.
