“Bal” was denied a bonus by their employer because they were retiring.
The PDA gave Bal advice on the law relating to age discrimination and assisted with a formal grievance process, attending the meetings and drafting the particulars of claim and supporting the member through the Employment Tribunal process.
The employer settled the claim, by agreeing on a payment to Bal before the details were disclosed in a public hearing.
