Lidl destroyed records linked to discrimination probe
The matter came to light during the investigation of a complaint by a 51-year-old man who said he was not interviewed for the job of district manager at Lidl because he was too old.
Responding to a job seeking candidates “ideally with not more than two-three years’ experience in a commercial environment”, Tom O’Connor said this limit on experience meant the company was geared towards the recruitment of younger people.
