Frequently Asked Questions
What are the time limits for bringing a workplace discrimination claim?
Generally, you have three months less one day from the date of the discriminatory act to file a claim with an employment tribunal. For equal pay claims, the time limit is six months. It’s crucial to act quickly, as tribunals rarely accept claims outside these time limits. Seek legal advice promptly to ensure you don’t miss important deadlines.
How much compensation can I expect for a successful discrimination claim?
Compensation varies widely depending on the case specifics. It may include financial losses (e.g., lost wages) and injury to feelings. Tribunals use the Vento bands to assess injury to feelings, ranging from £990 to £49,300. Severe cases may exceed these bands. Your solicitor can provide a more accurate estimate based on your circumstances.
Can I be dismissed for making a discrimination claim?
No, it’s illegal for an employer to dismiss you or treat you unfairly for making a discrimination claim. This is known as victimisation and is protected under the Equality Act 2010. If you face negative treatment after raising a claim, you may have grounds for additional legal action.
What evidence do I need to support a workplace discrimination claim?
Gather as much evidence as possible, including emails, messages, witness statements, and performance reviews. Keep a detailed diary of incidents, including dates, times, and individuals involved. Medical records may be relevant for disability discrimination cases. Your solicitor can advise on specific evidence needed for your case.
How long does a workplace discrimination case typically take to resolve?
The duration varies depending on case complexity and whether it’s settled or goes to tribunal. Simple cases might resolve in a few months, while complex ones can take over a year. Many cases settle before reaching tribunal. Your solicitor can provide a more accurate timeline based on your specific situation.
What should employers do to prevent workplace discrimination?
Employers should implement clear anti-discrimination policies, provide regular training, and establish robust reporting procedures. They should promptly investigate complaints, take appropriate action, and maintain confidentiality. Regular reviews of workplace practices and diversity initiatives can help create an inclusive environment and mitigate discrimination risks.
