Ford Motor Company Ltd v Elliott and Others: EAT 24 Sep 2015

EAT AGE DISCRIMINATION – On a Preliminary Hearing to determine whether the Employment Tribunal has jurisdiction to hear age discrimination claims by pensioners that they were not paid lump sums in respect of a change in the basis for pension increases which were made to current employees, the Employment Judge failed to consider whether the claims fell within both limits of the Equality Act 2010 section 108(1)(a) and (b). Further the Employment Judge erred in applying section 108(1)(a).
