Solicitors Workplace discrimination

Workplace discrimination occurs when you’re treated unfairly at work because of a protected characteristic, such as age, disability, race, religion, sex, or sexual orientation. Under the Equality Act 2010, UK employees and job applicants have legal rights to fair treatment and can seek redress if discrimination occurs.

  • Direct discrimination: Treating someone less favourably because of a protected characteristic (e.g., refusing a promotion due to pregnancy).
  • Indirect discrimination: Applying a policy or practice that disadvantages a group sharing a particular characteristic (e.g., a dress code that disproportionately affects certain religions).
  • Harassment: Unwanted behaviour linked to a protected characteristic, creating a hostile work environment.
  • Victimisation: Penalising someone who has made or supported a discrimination complaint.

If you experience any of these, you can raise a grievance with your employer or seek legal advice on making a claim.

A solicitor can assess whether your employer’s actions breach the Equality Act, gather evidence (such as emails or witness statements), and advise on negotiation or settlement options. If necessary, they’ll guide you through ACAS Early Conciliation and represent you at an employment tribunal.

Costs: Hourly rates often range from £150 to £300, though some firms offer fixed-fee packages for advising or drafting documents. In stronger cases, you may find a no win, no fee arrangement. Make sure to ask about an initial consultation, which can help you understand both the strength of your case and the likely fees involved.
