  • expand disabled

    Carl v University of Sheffield [2009] IRLR 616 EAT (0 other reports)

In Carl v University of Sheffield [2009] IRLR 616 EAT, the EAT held that a part-time worker complaining of less favourable treatment does not have to show that the treatment was solely on the ground of his or her part-time status. The EAT also held that the comparison must be with an actual, not a hypothetical, comparator.
