Bouzir v Country Style Foods Ltd: EAT 18 May 2011

EAT RACE DISCRIMINATION – Burden of proof
The Employment Tribunal did not apply section 54A(2) of the Race Relations Act 1976. The facts upon which the Claimant relied, taken as a whole were such that the Tribunal could conclude in the absence of an adequate explanation that the Respondent refused or deliberately omitted to offer him employment on racial grounds. The Tribunal, however, failed to make findings on some matters of primary fact and failed to consider whether those facts which the Claimant established brought his case within section 54A(2).
