In today’s multicultural society it is extremely important that businesses ensure all members of staff and any job applicants are treated equally and fairly.  An employer will be liable for an employee’s conduct if they cannot show they have made efforts to prevent discrimination, harassment or victimisation.  Having a robust equality and diversity policy in place can therefore safeguard employers against potential claims for discrimination, harassment or victimisation.  

Our employment team are on hand to assist in drafting an equality and diversity policy for your business and can also advise on any discrimination grievances or Employment Tribunal claims.
