<p data-pm-slice="0 0 []">The Presidents of the Employment Tribunals in England and Wales and in Scotland have issued guidance on the new Vento bands, which will apply to injury to feelings awards in discrimination or whistleblowing cases presented on or after 6 April 2025. Increases reflect the annual rise in the retail prices index. The new bands are as follows: lower band £1,200 to £12,100 (increased from £1,200 to £11,700); middle band £12,100 to £36,400 (increased from £11,700 to £35,200); and upper band £36,400 to £60,700 (increased from £35,200 to £58,700). In the most exceptional cases, the upper limit of £60,700 can be exceeded.</p>
