Employment Dispute Protection

Employment tribunals hear claims from people who think their employer has treated them unlawfully. Of course, no one wants to end up in an employment tribunal but unfortunately, it happens sometimes. Therefore, our optional employment dispute protection is there to help if things get tricky.

If you follow our advice, this protection protects you from both ACAS proceedings and from tribunal actions. And the case is handled from the point ACAS are involved.

It covers these issues:

Wrongful dismissal – this is a dismissal which is in breach of a contract
Termination of employment (actual or constructive) – ‘actual’ is where the employer actually terminates employment whereas, ‘constructive’ is where an employee resigns due to the conduct of the employer
Unfair dismissal – an employee may say that they have been unfairly dismissed if a full and fair dismissal procedure was not followed, or if the decision to dismiss was not justified
Unequal pay – by law, male and females must be paid equal pay for doing equal work
Unlawful deduction from wages – this is when an employee is not paid or underpaid wages
Discrimination – this is a claim made by an employee who thinks that they have been treated unfairly because of their protected characteristic
