Hacking & Paterson & Anor v Wilson UKEATS/0054/09/BI
Appeal against refusal by the ET to strike out a claim of indirect sex discrimination. The claimant claimed that she was being indirectly discriminated against because her employer refused her request for flexible working. The main issue for discussion was the make-up of the pool of comparators: should it consist of all employees of the respondent or just those who wanted the flexible working benefit? The EAT could not conclude that if the pool was made up only of those persons who wanted the benefit that the inevitable answer was that there was no indirect discrimination (since all requests would have been declined) and for that reason agreed that the Employment Judge was correct to refuse the application for a strike out.
