Kraft Foods UK Ltd v Hastie UKEAT/0024/10/ZT
Appeal by respondent against a ruling by the ET that a cap preventing employees, who had been made redundant, from recovering more than they would have earned if they had remained in employment until retirement age, was unjustifiable and accordingly that it constituted unlawful discrimination contrary to the Employment Equality (Age) Regulations 2006 . Appeal allowed: since the purpose of the scheme was to compensate employees for the loss of the expectation of remaining in employment, to impose a cap preventing the “windfall” of an employee recovering more than he could have recovered had he stayed in employment until retirement necessarily constituted a proportionate means of achieving a legitimate aim.
