Coote v Granada Hospitality Ltd: EAT 19 May 1999

The refusal of an employer to provide a reference to an employee who had left and claimed sex discrimination against the company could of itself and also found a claim for sex discrimination as victimisation. European regulations required the court to interpret our own regulations widely enough to comply with the European Regulations. The claim arose from employment even after it had ceased.
