REPLAY: Age Discrimination Webinar


On Tuesday Parklane Plowden employment specialists, Andrew Sugarman and Gareth Price delivered a webinar in our 'Law with Lunch' series titled 'Age Discrimination & Compulsory Retirement'.

Following the EATs decision in Ewart/Pitcher v Oxford University, in which Andrew Sugarman acted successfully for Prof. Ewart, Andrew and Gareth Price explore the key issues facing employers when their employees approach retirement age. The talk considered the implications of the EATs decision to dismiss both appeals, that reached different decisions regarding the same retirement policy, when compulsory retirement policies are permitted and the burden on employers to justify direct age discrimination.
