EAT Age Discrimination – The Respondent refused to allow the Claimant to take stock options on leaving employment because he was under 55 years of age. Age discrimination was admitted, but said to be justified.
Held: the Employment Tribunal did not carry out the necessary examination of the asserted aim, nor did it explain its finding that it was a legitimate aim. Remitted to a new Tribunal to decide.
