Williams v Trustees of Swansea University Pension and Assurance Scheme and another [2019] IRLR 306 SC

disability discrimination | discrimination arising from disability | unfavourable treatment

In Williams v Trustees of Swansea University Pension & Assurance Scheme and another, the Supreme Court held that an employee, whose working hours had been reduced to accommodate his disability, was not treated "unfavourably" when his enhanced pension on ill-health retirement was based on his final part-time salary, rather than his full-time salary.
