Frequently Asked Questions
We understand that dealing with workplace discrimination can be a daunting experience. Below are some of the frequently asked questions we receive from our clients:
What constitutes workplace discrimination?
Workplace discrimination occurs when an employee is treated unfairly due to one or more protected characteristics such as race, gender, age, sexual orientation, disability, or religion.
Discrimination can take many forms, from unequal pay to biased hiring practices or hostile working environments. If you believe you are being discriminated against, it’s important to seek advice from experienced discrimination lawyers in London or Kent.
Can I make a discrimination claim without quitting my job?
Yes. You do not need to leave your job to file a discrimination claim. If you’ve experienced discrimination at work, you have the right to pursue a legal claim without the need to resign.
However, we recommend discussing your options with a solicitor to understand the best course of action based on your specific circumstances.
How do I file a claim for workplace discrimination?
To file a claim for workplace discrimination, you will typically need to follow your employer’s internal grievance procedures first. If the issue is not resolved, you can file a claim with an employment tribunal.
Our discrimination solicitors in London and Kent can guide you through every step, from internal complaints to the tribunal process, ensuring that your claim is handled effectively.
What types of discrimination can I claim for?
You can make a claim for various types of discrimination, including but not limited to:
Racial discrimination
- Gender discrimination
- Disability discrimination
- Age discrimination
- Sexual orientation discrimination
- Religious discrimination
If you believe you’ve been subjected to any of these, our team of workplace discrimination solicitors in London, Kent and throughout the South East can offer the legal support you need to proceed with your claim.
