Age
The Employment Equality Age Regulations 2006
cover recruitment, selection, promotion, redundancy, retirement,
training and development.
Although there is no statutory duty around age
discrimination, the Employment Equality Regulations 2006 state it
is against the law to discriminate against an employee because of
their age.
The Equality Act 2010 strengthened age
legislation and placed an Equality Duty on all public
authorities.
The Suffolk Police ‘Age Action Plan’ will
raise the profile of age as a diversity strand and ensure that we
provide a policing service that meets the needs of people of all
ages.
We will focus on young and older
people. The age action plan is committed to ensure that
neither, our staff or the community we serve is discriminated
against because of their age.
