| Annotation | Under the European Directive on Equal Treatment in Employment and Occupation (Council Directive 2000/78/EC), age discrimination in employment and vocational training will become unlawful on 1 October 2006. This Regulatory Impact Assessment (RIA) is part of the final consultation on the draft Employment Equality (Age) Regulations, and considers the impact of recruitment, training and promotion on employers and individuals, on the macro-economy and the Exchequer. The main options under consideration are twofold: a) Implement the Directive by outlawing discrimination on the basis of age, without providing for employers, exceptionally to objectively justify age-based practices in recruitment, training and promotion; and, b) Implement the Directive by outlawing discrimination on the basis of age, and allow employers to objectively justify age discrimination in certain circumstances in recruitment, selection and promotion.
