Around one year after the introduction of the age discrimination legislation the first Tribunal
case considering how the new law applies to pensions has been decided. While the case
turned on its specific facts, a number of more general conclusions can be drawn, particularly
as regards the indicators the Tribunals will look for when deciding whether there is objective
justification for actions which would otherwise be unlawful. It is not yet clear whether the
ruling will be appealed.
