A Note from the Editor
Louise has put together this quiz, Are you an Accidental Discriminator? as a result of a recent survey revealed that one in five British employees have been affected by workplace discrimination at some point in their career, be it a one off occurrence or ongoing issue. Whilst discrimination is inexcusable at any level, it could be argued that naivety on the employer’s part has a part to play in these statistics, particularly at the interview stage. You might think you know what to avoid asking at interview but plenty don’t! With this in mind, we have teamed up with employment law specialists, Fisher Jones Greenwood, and put together ten questions to test your knowledge on this subject.
