# The Employment Relations Act 1999 (Blacklists) Regulations 2010, Regulation 9: Detriment


(1) A person (P) has a right of complaint to an employment tribunal against P’s employer (D) if D, by any act or any deliberate failure to act, subjects P to a detriment for a reason which relates to a prohibited list, and either—
(a) D contravenes regulation 3 in relation to that list, or
(b) D—
(i) relies on information supplied by a person who contravenes that regulation in relation to that list, and
(ii) knows or ought reasonably to know that information relied on is supplied in contravention of that regulation.
(2) If there are facts from which the tribunal could conclude, in the absence of any other explanation, that D contravened regulation 3 or relied on information supplied in contravention of that regulation, the tribunal must find that such a contravention or reliance on information occurred unless D shows that it did not.
(3) This regulation does not apply where the detriment in question amounts to the dismissal of an employee within the meaning in Part 10 of the Employment Rights Act 1996.
