Unfair dismissal

packdesk
Getting the sack is everyone’s worst nightmare, but what can you do about it? You might feel you’ve been treated unfairly, but how do you know if it’s worth taking your case to an employment tribunal?

  • In this special feature we explain your rights at work, and look at the truth behind some common misconceptions.
  • We look at what happens if you are dismissed from your job, and explain what counts as a fair or unfair dismissal, to help you decide what course of action to take next.

See the index on the right for more information, and a step by step guide to making a claim for unfair dismissal at an employment tribunal.
