The IDS Employment Law Handbook Discrimination at Work provides an authoritative and detailed overview of how the Equality Act 2010 applies in the workplace. This comprehensive guide clearly explains the key legal issues, including the scope of the ‘protected characteristics’ under the 2010 Act; the various types of discrimination that the Act prohibits; who is protected and who may be liable; the circumstances in which discrimination can arise before, during and after employment; and the remedies available to successful claimants. The 2022 edition of the Handbook has been updated to take account of key case law developments since the previous edition, as well as the post-Brexit status of EU law in the UK. Discrimination law has become a vast topic, with the capacity to affect every aspect of the employment relationship, and this Handbook is an essential tool in keeping up-to-date and fully informed.
