Hosso v European Credit Management Ltd: EAT 7 Jan 2011

EAT EQUAL PAY ACT
SEX DISCRIMINATION – Jurisdiction
Whether allocation of share options, which differed between Claimant and her male comparator, gave rise to a claim under the Equal Pay Act 1970 or Sex Discrimination Act 1975 (see SDA s6(6)). On the facts found, the scheme being truly discretionary, the claim fell under the SDA. Since that claim was time-barred the employer’s appeal against the Employment Tribunal award under the Equal Pay Act succeeded.
