It is all too easy for unsuspecting employers to fall foul of age discrimination laws. As well as obvious measures, such as avoiding ageist wording in recruitment adverts – for example, “youthful enthusiasm” or “an energetic person required to work in a young team” – employers need to guard against acts of discrimination in several other areas.
In this XpertHR webinar, in association with Personnel Today, we will look at age discrimination legislation and case law.
