For the first time, the popular IRS monthly journal Equal Opportunities Review publishes a guide to the assessment of compensation awards in discrimination cases. Subscribers to Equal Opportunities Review will already be familiar with EOR’s annual compensation awards survey but this new publication offers much more detailed guidance, with summaries of compensation awards in over 100 employment tribunal decisions.

The EOR Guide to Compensation in Discrimination Cases:-

• Brings together summaries of employment tribunal decisions in over 100 cases, providing comprehensive guidance to the assessment of compensation
• Sets out in clear terms the legal principles that apply to the assessment of compensation - for both financial and non- financial loss
• Provides data analysis giving invaluable information on the average and median awards in all categories of discrimination to be used for benchmarking of awards or settlements
• Supplies case summaries which are presented within the Vento bands of compensation, illustrating how tribunals have applied the Court of Appeal’s guidance
