Vento Bands - Updated!

09-04-2025

Further to the statutory cap updates, the injury to feelings awards in discrimination and detriment cases have been published. For claims presented to the employment tribunal on or after 6 April 2025, the updated Vento bands for injury to feelings are as follows:

Lower Band: £1,200 to £12,100 (for less serious cases)
Middle Band: £12,100 to £36,400 (for cases that don’t merit an upper band award)
Upper Band: £36,400 to £60,700 (for the most serious cases)

In particularly exceptional cases, awards can exceed £60,700. This guidance is intended to help tribunals determine appropriate compensation for injury to feelings in such cases
