Employment law support on
statuatory retirement procedure
Since the advent of Age Discrimination legislation, a business must carefully follow the statutory retirement procedure to ensure that all retirements are fair. Trying to retire an employee who is below the age of 65 may lead to a claim of age discrimination, unless the grounds for early retirement are justified. As the workforce works for longer, it is for companies to consider whether there are positions within the business for staff over 65 and how to use them to the best of their abilities.
At Q&A Law we understand the statuatory retirement procedure and with our comprehensive services you'll find the answers to your questions along with a law guide, a step-by-step process guide, letter templates and policy documents to enable you to deal with all your retirement issues. This is supported by your own solicitor available on the telephone or by email. We are so confident that we will be able to help your business, that you can call us today for your free introductory advice session on 0845 686 8480.
