Anti-ageism laws - be better informed

News

Welcome to agediscrimination.info

This site provides a one-stop source of information to employers, journalists and others interested in age discrimination both in the UK and overseas. As well as providing a wealth of data and guidance on the age legislation, it includes a comprehensive summary of international age discrimination laws provided by law firms from the ius laboris international employment law alliance.

Over time the site will feature important legal cases which will help define the scope of age discrimination laws in the UK. If you have any suggestions or contributions for the site please contact us.
