Employers need to be aware that they should have a well-drafted Equal Opportunities Policy and that training is given to managers and employees on the subject. If an employer is taken to the Employment Tribunal on the grounds of discrimination they will find it very difficult to defend the claim unless they can show to the Tribunal that they have policies and procedures in place and that training is carried out so that employees are aware of the policy. If employers do not have sufficient resources the employment team at Rix & Kay can assist in providing in-house training on Equal Opportunities and other matters.
