British Airways plc v Starmer EAT/0306/05/SM | Practical Law
In Starmer v British Airways, the EAT upheld a tribunal's finding that BA's decision to require a female employee to work 75% of her full-time hours following her request to reduce her hours to 50% was indirectly discriminatory under section 1(2)(b) of the Sex Discrimination Act 1975, since it was a provision, criterion or practice that had a disparate impact on women and was not justified.
