Passed Over For Promotion

It is unlawful is to downgrade or overlook you on the grounds of your sex, race, disability, pregnancy, sexual orientation, age, religious beliefs or as a part time worker.

Few employers will admit this, but if you believe it, the Employment Tribunals may well draw the same conclusion.

First, you must raise a formal written grievance stating that you believe your comparator (the person who got the job) was preferred on unlawful grounds (stating which: sex, race, disability, pregnancy, sexual orientation, age, religious beliefs or as a part time worker.) Please also see our section on Grievances (tab at the top of the page).

You may benefit from being represented: there are many complexities in claims that rely on inference that discrimination has taken place.
