I received a call today from a lovely gentleman who told me he had been dismissed by his employer. From the circumstances he described, I considered he would have an excellent claim for age discrimination and unfair dismissal at the Employment Tribunal. However, things got quite frantic when he told me the dates of the discrimination he suffered and his dismissal!
It is an unfortunate sign of the times that we are receiving increasingly frequent enquiries from employees who have been subjected to Pregnancy and Maternity Discrimination. We would always advise any person who is subjected to discriminatory behaviour by their employer to take independent legal advice. Of course, we hope they would contact us at Lincs Law Employment Solicitors. However, if you are considering raising your own complaint or representing yourself at the Employment Tribunal, we set out below some general guidance.
Are you representing yourself at the Employment Tribunal? Do you need assistance, but you are worried about costs of seeking legal advice? This post sets out how Lincs Law Employment Solicitors can help.
If you have a claim before the Employment Tribunal, you might have been asked whether you would agree to the matter being dealt with by way of Judicial Mediation. This process is a type of alternative dispute resolution and can be a good way for some clients to bring their claim to a conclusion without having to go through a Final Hearing at the Employment Tribunal.
Many of my clients fund my advice and representation at the Employment Tribunal using a Legal Expenses Insurance policy. However, sometimes getting funding can be a challenge – read on for more information.
We get many calls from clients who have been made redundant, only to find their employer is recruiting, or has recruited, new staff soon after they have left. This is always a difficult situation and there are many “Google Myths” suggesting there is a fixed period of time when an employer can recruit after redundancies. This is simply not true. If you have been made redundant and your employer has recruited new staff, read on to see if you have a claim.
Going through a dismissal process is extremely difficult for any employee. However, even after the decision has been made and the termination notices have been sent, the employer still owes their employee an obligation to consider the fairness of any dismissal. Read on for more information.
