This book looks at the relationship between menopause/perimenopause and current employment law. In particular, it will consider the coverage of the Equality Act 2010, and whether those experiencing menopause/perimenopause enjoy its protection. Specifically, the law around direct discrimination, indirect discrimination, harassment, and disability discrimination (discrimination arising from disability and failure to make reasonable adjustments) are all considered in detail. The application of the law of unfair dismissal to capability and conduct and in particular to issues that may arise from menopause/perimenopause is also reviewed. The text pulls together the key principles and case law to provide practitioners a straightforward but in-depth reference for creating legal arguments as more employment tribunal cases involving menopause/perimenopause emerge. The content is also an especially useful guide to the law of discrimination and unfair dismissal generally, and is suitable for all employment practitioners.
