Part-time Workers
With increased greater flexibility in the work place and more part time workers, employers must make sure they do not discriminate against part time workers by treating them less favourably.
In order to show that you have been discriminated against you will have to compare yourself with a full time worker employed in the same or similar work. It is important that the comparison is made with the right person.
You may also have a sex discrimination claim if for example you are a women employed on a part time basis who has not been treated in the same way as a full time male counterpart and vice versa.
We have advised many employees on all aspects of part time working including:
- your appropriate comparator
- your rights generally including sickness and holiday
- other claims you might have
- bringing a claim in the tribunal
- settling claims
The amount of compensation that can be awarded is unlimited.
