Age Discrimination - Employment Law Training

Course Description
The introduction of the Age Discrimination legislation is considered to be the most significant piece of employment legislation since the Sex Discrimination Act 1975 was introduced. Discriminating
on the grounds of age can be costly to an organisation.

This new law, and the fact that a recent survey showed that by 2010, almost 40% of the workforce will be aged 45 or older, highlights the importance in proactively embracing this important piece of employment legislation.

Course Content
All bespoke courses can be tailored to business and individual needs and typically the content of the course will cover the following topics:

  • Key facts on age discrimination.
  • The legal overview – what do the regulations cover?
  • Managing age compliant recruitment and selection.
  • Understanding how you can reward motivation and loyalty whilst being age compliant.
  • The legal process for managing retirement.
  • Understanding how age discrimination impacts on unfair dismissal.
  • Understanding how redundancy is affected by the new Age laws.
  • What is a workplace audit and how to carry it out?

Who is it For?
Those who have a responsibility for managing people or are involved in the company’s recruitment procedure.
